Server system with 12 3.5" drive bays
The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack-mount server populated with two Intel Xeon Gold 6226 processors at 2.7 GHz and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It ships with a PERC H730P RAID controller and dual 1100 W power supplies, ready for storage-heavy workloads. No drives are included in this configuration.
Suits buyers needing dense 3.5" capacity
This chassis holds up to twelve 3.5" SATA drives, making it a fit for backup repositories, archival storage or software-defined storage nodes. It is not for buyers who require 2.5" bay density, PCIe flash slots, GPU compute expansion or a tower form factor.
The twelve 3.5" SATA bays decide the fit
The single specification that determines suitability is the twelve 3.5" drive bay count paired with SATA connectivity. If the deployment needs that exact bay quantity and interface, this server matches; otherwise a different chassis is required.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?
The chassis includes two Xeon Gold 6226 processors, 384 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, a PERC H730P RAID controller, a 10 GbE 2-port 562T adapter, and two 1100 W power supplies. No 3.5" drives or rail kit are installed; both are optional.
How do I choose between the 12-bay 3.5" chassis and other R740xd variants?
This model is the 12 LFF version that holds up to twelve 3.5" SATA drives. If you need 2.5" bays or a different bay count, select another R740xd chassis configuration.
What does the 384 GB DDR4 figure mean for real workloads?
With 384 GB installed and a 3 TB maximum, the system can run large in-memory databases or dense virtualization today and still has headroom for future memory expansion.
