Ready-to-configure 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 arrives as a new 2U rackmount chassis populated with two Xeon Silver 4108 processors at 1.8GHz and 512GB of DDR4 ECC memory. Eight 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P controller are installed, while storage drives are not included so you can choose capacity and type.

Fits virtualisation and database clusters

This configuration suits teams that need high core counts and large memory for hypervisors, in-memory databases or heavy application tiers. Buyers who want a single-socket platform, smaller memory footprints or 2.5-inch bay density should evaluate other chassis options.

Dual-socket ceiling locked at two CPUs

The board supports a maximum of two processors, so the installed pair already reaches the socket limit. Any future compute growth must come from higher-frequency or higher-core Xeon Silver parts rather than adding a third socket.

Questions about this item

How many 3.5" drive bays does the R740 chassis provide for the 8LFF layout?

The chassis supports up to 8 drive bays for 3.5" SATA drives, matching the 8LFF designation in the product name.

What is the correct order for installing the two Xeon Silver 4108 processors and the 512GB DDR4 memory?

Install both processors into the two CPU sockets first, then populate the memory slots according to the per-processor channel layout so each CPU has local memory.

When should the iDRAC9 Enterprise license be activated during the server lifecycle?

Activate the iDRAC9 Enterprise license on first boot to enable full remote management, firmware updates, and hardware monitoring before deploying workloads.
