12-bay 3.5-inch storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis holds up to 12 large-form-factor drives and ships with dual Xeon Gold 5218R processors running at 2.1 GHz. 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller are installed. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise and dual 1100 W supplies provide redundancy.

Suited for dense capacity workloads

This configuration fits teams that need maximum 3.5-inch drive density in a 2U rack space for backup, archive or software-defined storage clusters. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, all-flash arrays or a 1U footprint will not find those capabilities here.

Dual 20-core Xeon Gold 5218R

Two 20-core processors deliver 40 threads at a base frequency of 2.1 GHz with 27.5 MB cache per chip. The installed 256 GB DDR4 can be expanded toward the 3 TB maximum if the workload demands more memory bandwidth.
