Dual-socket 12-bay rack server
The Dell PowerEdge R740xd 12LFF is a 2U rack-mount server populated with two Intel Xeon Bronze 3204 processors running at 1.9 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It includes a PERC H730P RAID controller and twelve 3.5‑inch drive bays ready for SATA hard drives, plus dual 1100 W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management.
Data-centre storage workloads
This configuration suits organisations that need dense 3.5‑inch storage capacity and dual-socket compute for virtualisation, backup targets or software-defined storage clusters. Buyers who require more than twelve drive bays or a different drive form factor must choose a different chassis.
Twelve 3.5‑inch SATA drive bays
The single specification that decides fit is the twelve-bay 3.5‑inch SATA backplane; only SATA hard drives or compatible SSDs can be installed, so confirm that your storage media matches this interface before purchasing.

Questions about this item
How much power do the two 1100W supplies draw when the server runs all day?
Each supply is rated at 1100W; actual draw depends on workload and the drives you install.
Which drive caddies or trays are needed to populate the 12 x 3.5" bays?
The chassis accepts standard Dell 3.5" hot-plug caddies for SATA drives.
Will the PERC H730P RAID controller recognise older SATA drives I already own?
Yes, the H730P supports SATA drives and will present them to the RAID firmware.
