Dell PowerEdge R740 8x3.5" Server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 rack server arrives with two Intel Xeon Gold 6140 processors running at 2.3 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It is built for organisations that need a dense 2U platform for virtualisation, database or compute workloads.

8-bay 3.5" SATA chassis with PERC H730P RAID

The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch drive bays connected through a Dell PERC H730P RAID controller over a SATA interface. Mechanical drives are not included so the buyer must supply storage that matches the bay count and controller capability.

Dual Xeon Gold 6140 18-core CPUs define total

Each processor contributes 18 cores and 24.75 MB cache, giving 36 cores across the system. This core count is the primary factor in deciding whether the server meets a given workload's parallel processing requirements.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 8-bay 3.5-inch chassis or a smaller bay count for this R740?

The R740 chassis supports up to 8 drive bays for 3.5-inch SATA drives, giving maximum internal capacity in a 2U rack form factor.

What does the 2.3 GHz clock on the dual Xeon Gold 6140 CPUs deliver in a live workload?

Two 18-core Xeon Gold 6140 processors at 2.3 GHz provide 36 cores total with 24.75 MB cache each, suited for virtualization and database tasks.

How does the PERC H730P controller and SATA interface limit real-world drive speed?

The PERC H730P RAID controller manages SATA drives at up to 6 Gb/s per port, so sequential throughput is capped by the SATA link rather than the controller.
