Ready-to-rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 arrives as a 2U rack-mount chassis populated with two Xeon 5118 processors running at 2.3GHz and 64GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Eight 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller are installed, while storage drives are not included so you can choose capacity and redundancy. Integrated graphics and a 10GbE two-port 562T adapter handle display and network duties out of the box.

Verify power and rails

Confirm that your rack can supply the dual 750W power supplies and that the 36 by 24 by 10 inch footprint fits your available U-space. The system supports a maximum of two processors and up to 3TB of DDR4 memory, so plan future CPU or RAM upgrades within those limits. Ensure your environment provides adequate airflow for the 40-pound chassis and that any required rail kit is sourced before installation.

Sustained enterprise workloads

Dual 12-core Xeon 5118 CPUs with 16.5MB cache each deliver consistent multi-threaded throughput for virtualization, database or compute tasks. The H730P controller maintains steady RAID performance across the eight SATA bays during prolonged I/O, while iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote monitoring and firmware updates without downtime. Redundant power supplies and ECC memory protect data integrity under continuous operation.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell PowerEdge R740 ship with any 3.5-inch drives or only the empty bays and PERC H730P controller?

The chassis has eight 3.5-inch bays but no drives are installed; the PERC H730P RAID controller is included so you can add SATA drives yourself.

Should I choose the 64 GB DDR4 configuration or plan for the 3 TB maximum?

The system arrives with 64 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory; if your workload needs more, the board supports up to 3 TB using additional DDR4 modules.

What does the 2.3 GHz Xeon 5118 speed mean for real-world throughput with two 12-core CPUs?

Two Xeon 5118 Gold processors each run at 2.3 GHz with 12 cores and 16.5 MB cache, giving 24 total cores for parallel workloads.
