Server for storage-heavy workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 12-bay rack server built for capacity-focused deployments. It ships with two Xeon Silver 4116 processors at 2.1GHz and 32GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages up to twelve 3.5-inch SATA drives.

Verify rack space and drive plan

Confirm the rack can accept a unit measuring 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighing 40 units. No drives are installed; you must supply up to twelve 3.5-inch SATA drives. Two 1100W power supplies are fitted, so ensure the PDU can deliver the required current.

Fits a 12-bay storage build

The chassis provides twelve 3.5-inch bays, freeing internal space for high-capacity SATA drives. Integrated graphics handles console output without a discrete card. A 10GbE 2-port 562T adapter and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included for network and out-of-band control.
