Rack Server with Dual Xeon Silver 4210
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server system built for virtualization and database workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2 GHz, providing 20 cores total. The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730P RAID controller for SAS arrays. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.
Suited for Dense Virtualisation, Not GPU Work
This configuration fits organisations that need high memory capacity in a compact rack footprint, with 1 TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed and room to grow to 3 TB. The dual 750 W power supplies provide redundancy for critical uptime. Buyers who require dedicated GPU compute, a tower form factor or more than two processor sockets should evaluate other platforms.
1 TB DDR4 ECC Registered Memory Installed
The system arrives with 1 TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory populated across the available DIMM slots. This memory type is required for compatibility; other DDR generations will not fit or function. The maximum supported capacity is 3 TB, allowing future expansion without replacing existing modules.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 8 SFF chassis or a larger bay count for my storage needs?
The 8 SFF chassis fits eight 2.5-inch SAS drives and uses the PERC H730P controller, so capacity scales with the number of drives you install.
How does the 2.2 GHz Xeon Silver 4210 perform in a dual-socket R740?
Two 10-core Xeon Silver 4210 CPUs at 2.2 GHz deliver 20 cores and 13.75 MB cache per processor for multi-threaded workloads.
What does the 562T 10 GbE adapter cap at in this server?
The dual-port 562T adapter provides two 10 GbE links, limiting network throughput to 10 Gbps per port.
