Dense Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis holds twelve 3.5-inch drive bays in a 2U rack frame. Two Xeon Gold 6226 processors at 2.7 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC memory provide the compute base for storage-heavy workloads. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages the SATA array. No drives are installed, so capacity is chosen by the buyer.

Build Integration

The system arrives with dual 1100 W power supplies and a 10 GbE two-port 562T adapter for high-throughput networking. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote firmware updates and power control without a local console. A rail kit can be added on request for standard rack mounting. Twelve front bays free internal space otherwise used by smaller drive cages.

Sustained Operation

BIOS and firmware are updated to the latest stable release before shipment. Each unit passes a full diagnostic burn-in to verify thermal stability under continuous load. The 19.25 MB L3 cache per processor helps maintain throughput during long RAID rebuilds or streaming writes. Integrated graphics handle console output without a discrete GPU.

It ships with two 1100W power supplies, providing redundant power for sustained all-day workloads.

Does the PERC H730P controller require a specific drive type to function?
