PowerEdge R740 8SFF dual Xeon Silver 4210
This rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2GHz and 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730P RAID controller. It is aimed at organisations that need dense compute and memory capacity in a 2U form factor.
768GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed
The installed memory totals 768GB across DDR4 ECC registered modules, with the platform supporting up to 3TB when fully populated. This capacity decides whether the system can hold the working set for virtualisation, in-memory databases or large-scale analytics without swapping to storage.
Suits memory-intensive workloads in a 2U rack
Buyers who need maximum memory headroom for consolidation or high-performance computing will find the 768GB starting point valuable. Buyers who want storage drives included, GPU acceleration, or a tower form factor should look at something else.

Questions about this item
How does 768GB of DDR4 memory perform in a dual-socket R740?
The 768GB DDR4 ECC registered memory runs across both Xeon Silver 4210 processors, providing high-capacity error-correcting memory for virtualization and database workloads.
What does the PERC H730P controller cap for SATA drives?
The PERC H730P RAID controller manages the eight 2.5-inch SATA bays with hardware RAID levels and 2GB cache, setting the storage performance ceiling.
What clearance do the 36 x 24 x 10 in dimensions need for rack mounting?
The chassis is 36 inches deep, 24 inches wide and 10 inches high, so the rack must provide at least that depth and height with front and rear airflow space.
