Server purpose

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for memory-intensive workloads such as virtualisation, database hosting and analytics. Two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2GHz provide 20 cores in total, while 1.5TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory supports large working sets. The chassis offers eight 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller for flexible storage arrays.

Fit and limits

This configuration suits organisations that need maximum memory capacity and internal drive density in a standard rack footprint. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or a smaller 1U form factor should look at alternative platforms. The system ships without hard drives, so storage must be sourced separately. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence for out-of-band control.

Deciding specification

The installed 1536GB DDR4 memory is the defining figure; it determines whether the server can hold your active dataset without swapping. The PERC H730P controller supports SATA drives across the eight bays, and dual 750W power supplies provide redundancy. Maximum memory capacity reaches 3TB if future expansion is required.

Questions about this item

What components come installed and what must be purchased separately?

The server includes two Xeon Silver 4210 processors, 1536GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory, a PERC H730P RAID controller, a 10GbE 562T two‑port adapter, dual 750W power supplies and iDRAC remote management. No 3.5" drives are installed; they must be bought separately.

Which drive capacity or version should I choose for the eight 3.5" bays?

The chassis accepts up to eight 3.5" SATA drives; select capacities that match your storage target and ensure they are SATA models compatible with the PERC H730P controller.

What does the 1.5TB memory figure mean once the server is running?

1536GB of DDR4 ECC registered RAM is installed across both processors, providing a large error‑corrected memory pool for virtualisation, databases or in‑memory workloads.
