Dell PowerEdge R740 dual-Xeon server
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors running at 2.1GHz. It ships with 512GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch drive bays for SATA storage.
iDRAC9 Enterprise and 10GbE networking
Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence, allowing full out-of-band control and monitoring. A dual-port 10GbE 562T adapter is installed for high-speed network connectivity. Redundant 750W power supplies are included to maintain uptime.
No drives installed — add your own storage
The system arrives without any hard drives or solid-state drives, so you must supply the required SATA media. Maximum memory capacity is 3TB across the available DIMM slots. Buyers who need pre-populated storage or a different drive-count chassis should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
When will the 750 W power supplies need replacement under continuous load?
The dual 750 W units are hot-swappable; Dell rates them for multi-year operation in the R740, and iDRAC9 Enterprise will alert you before a unit degrades.
What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon Silver 4110 CPUs run at 2.1 GHz all day?
The 11 MB cache per processor and 512 GB DDR4 keep memory bandwidth high, so the chassis airflow ceiling is reached before CPU throttling begins.
How loud are the fans when the PERC H730P and 10 GbE 562T adapter run 24/7?
Fan speed ramps to the 36 x 24 x 10 in chassis spec; iDRAC9 logs show typical office-floor noise levels under sustained I/O.
