Dell PowerEdge R740 2U rack server

This 2U rack server delivers dual Intel Gold 6132 processors with 14 cores each at 2.6GHz and 512GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules. It ships with eight 480GB SATA SSDs managed by an H730P RAID controller. The platform targets virtualisation clusters, database workloads and enterprise applications that demand dense compute and storage in a standard rack footprint.

Pre-deployment checklist

Verify your rack provides 2U of vertical space and that the included rails match your cabinet hole pattern. Confirm the facility can supply redundant power to the 1100W PSUs and that network uplinks support the onboard Intel X550 dual 10Gb and dual 1Gb RJ45 ports. Ensure iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management integrates with your existing monitoring tools before installation.

Thermals power acoustics

Redundant 1100W power supplies share load to maintain uptime during a single-unit failure. The 2U chassis uses front-to-rear airflow tuned for the dual 14-core CPUs and fully populated drive bays. Fan speeds scale with inlet temperature and component utilisation, so acoustics rise under sustained compute or storage throughput. Power draw tracks CPU utilisation, memory activity and the eight SSDs under RAID workloads.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with rails, power cords and a bezel, or must I order them separately?

The package includes the bezel without LCD, sliding rails and power cords so the server is ready to rack-mount on arrival.

Should I choose the 512 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

All 16 DIMM slots are already filled with 32 GB modules running at 2400 MT/s, so any expansion would require removing existing sticks.

What throughput can I expect from the eight 480 GB SATA SSDs behind the H730P controller?

The H730P RAID controller manages the eight SATA SSDs with hardware RAID, delivering consistent read and write performance for mixed enterprise workloads.
