12-bay 3.5-inch rack server for dense storage
The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis holds twelve 3.5-inch drive bays in a 2U form factor. Dual Xeon Silver 6130 processors deliver 16 cores each at 2.1GHz with 22MB cache per CPU. 64GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed and the platform scales to 3TB maximum capacity.
Dual 1100W supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote
Redundant 1100W power supplies feed the system while the PERC H730P RAID controller manages SATA drives. Integrated graphics handle console output and the 10GbE 562T two-port adapter provides high-speed networking. iDRAC9 Enterprise gives full out-of-band control with firmware updated to the latest stable version.
No drives installed — add storage to match
The server ships without hard drives so you can populate the twelve bays with the capacity and speed profile the application requires. A rail kit is available on request for rack mounting. Every unit passes full diagnostics and burn-in testing before it leaves the facility.

Questions about this item
How do I install the drives in the 12-bay 3.5" chassis and which step is often missed?
Slide each 3.5" drive into the front bays until the latch clicks, then configure the virtual disks in the PERC H730P RAID controller BIOS; the step often missed is initialising the array before the OS sees any volume.
What maintenance or replacement will the server need over time?
The two 1100W power supplies and system fans are hot-swappable field-replaceable units; replace a failed supply or fan without downtime, and refresh the iDRAC9 firmware when Dell releases security updates.
What limit appears first under sustained heavy workloads?
The 64GB DDR4 ECC registered memory ceiling is reached before the dual Xeon Silver 6130 16-core processors saturate, so memory capacity becomes the first bottleneck for large datasets.
