PowerEdge R740xd 12-bay storage server

This 2U rack system pairs two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors with 128GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory. A PERC H730P controller manages twelve 3.5-inch 6TB enterprise SATA drives for high-capacity storage workloads. Dual 750W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management out of the box.

Ideal for software-defined storage

The dense drive count and dual-socket compute suit service providers building scale-out storage clusters or VDI hosts. Buyers who need all-flash performance or more than two processor sockets should evaluate other platforms. The 24 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 3TB for growing workloads.

12-bay 3.5-inch SATA drive configuration

Twelve front-accessible 3.5-inch bays populate the chassis with 6TB 7.2K SATA drives connected to the H730P RAID controller. This layout fixes the storage medium and bay count, so capacity and drive-type requirements must match before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 750 watt PSUs draw when the R740xd runs continuously?

The server includes two redundant 750 watt Platinum-efficiency power supplies; actual draw depends on workload but each unit is rated at 750 watts maximum.

Which drive trays and cables are needed to populate the twelve 3.5 inch bays?

The chassis ships with twelve 3.5 inch hot-swap bays, rails and bezel; drives and trays are already installed so no extra parts are required.

Will the PERC H730P controller work with older SATA drives I already own?

Yes, the H730P supports both SAS and SATA drives and offers RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode for legacy disks.
