Dense Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis holds twelve 3.5-inch drive bays in a 2U rack form factor. Two Xeon Bronze 3106 processors run at 1.7GHz with eight cores each. A massive 1.5TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages storage arrays.

High-Capacity Archive Workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need extensive local hard-drive capacity for backup, archiving or media libraries. It does not suit buyers who require solid-state speed or who plan to populate bays with 2.5-inch drives. The system ships without any drives installed.

Twelve 3.5-Inch Drive Bays

The single specification that decides fit is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch chassis. If the deployment needs fewer bays, a smaller form factor, or 2.5-inch drive support, a different chassis is required. The H730P controller and 1.5TB memory complement that bay count.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power will the dual Xeon 3106 CPUs and 1536GB DDR4 produce under continuous load with the two 1100W supplies?

The two 1100W power supplies run in redundant mode and the system firmware is updated to the latest stable version, so the chassis fans and iDRAC9 thermal monitoring keep temperatures in check during all-day operation.

What drives and caddies do I need to populate the 12 LFF bays on this R740xd?

The chassis accepts twelve 3.5" SATA drives; the PERC H730P RAID controller manages them, but no drives or drive carriers are included, so you must supply both.

Will my existing SATA drives and PERC H730P cables work straight away in this 12-bay server?

Yes, the backplane uses standard SATA connections and the installed PERC H730P controller is fully tested with updated firmware, so compatible drives and cables plug in without adapters.
