Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF dual Xeon Silver 4210

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2 GHz. Each CPU provides ten cores and 13.75 MB of cache. The system ships with 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. It is aimed at organisations that need dense 3.5-inch storage capacity in a standard rack footprint.

Eight 3.5-inch bays with SATA and PERC H730P RAID

The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch drives connected through a SATA interface and managed by the Dell PERC H730P controller. Drive modules are not installed, so buyers must supply their own storage media. The integrated 10 GbE 562T dual-port adapter handles network traffic. Remote administration is provided by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Replaces older 2U servers limited to fewer drive

Organisations moving from platforms capped at lower DIMM counts or smaller drive cages gain 3 TB maximum memory headroom and eight large-form-factor slots in the same rack height. The jump is worth it when workloads demand both high core counts and local bulk storage without moving to a larger chassis. Dual 750 W power supplies are included.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 8 LFF chassis or a smaller drive-bay count for this R740?

The 8 LFF chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives and includes a PERC H730P RAID controller, so choose it when you need maximum internal capacity.

What does the 2.2 GHz Xeon Silver 4210 rating mean once the server is running workloads?

Each of the two 10-core Xeon Silver 4210 processors runs at 2.2 GHz with 13.75 MB cache, giving 20 total cores for multi-threaded applications.

How does the PERC H730P controller limit the SATA drives I can install?

The PERC H730P manages RAID across the eight 3.5-inch SATA bays and caps throughput at the SATA interface speed of the installed drives.
