Rack server with dual Xeon Gold 6140
This Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 6140 processors running at 2.3 GHz, each providing 18 cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The chassis holds eight 3.5-inch SATA drive bays; no drives are installed.
Suited for virtualisation hosts and database nodes
The dual-socket design and 3 TB maximum memory capacity support heavy multi-threaded workloads such as virtualisation clusters or in-memory databases. Buyers who require GPU compute acceleration should consider other platforms. The integrated graphics and 10 GbE 562T adapter meet basic display and networking needs only.
Eight 3.5-inch SATA bays define storage flexibility
The PERC H730P controller manages up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives in hardware RAID, so capacity and redundancy scale with the drives you add. No drives are included, so you must supply your own. The 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management complete the core infrastructure.

Questions about this item
How loud and hot does the R740 get when the dual Xeon Gold 6140 processors run at full load all day?
The chassis uses redundant 750 W power supplies and Dell's thermal design for 2U airflow; fan speed scales with CPU temperature through iDRAC9 monitoring.
What drives and caddies do I need to populate the eight 3.5-inch bays?
The bays accept 3.5-inch SATA drives; the PERC H730P controller manages them and a rail kit is available on request.
Will the integrated graphics and 10 GbE 562T adapter work with my existing monitoring tools and KVM switches?
Integrated graphics provide basic video output while the 2-port 10 GbE adapter and iDRAC9 Enterprise give remote console and management access.
