12-Bay 3.5" Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack-mount server built around a 12-bay chassis that accepts 3.5-inch SATA drives. It ships with one Intel Xeon Bronze 3106 processor running at 1.7 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. A PERC H730P RAID controller and dual 1100 W power supplies are installed, and remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Suits Storage-Heavy Workloads; Not for GPU Compute

This configuration fits buyers who need dense local storage in a compact rack footprint, such as backup targets, software-defined storage nodes or archival repositories. The single-socket layout and integrated graphics mean it cannot serve workloads that require a second CPU or discrete GPU acceleration. Buyers who need more than 64 GB of memory out of the box should note the 3 TB ceiling and plan upgrades accordingly.

12 x 3.5-Inch Drive Bays Define Capacity

The chassis provides twelve 3.5-inch drive bays, and no drives are included in this listing. That bay count is the single specification that determines whether the server can meet your raw storage target; each bay accepts a SATA HDD or SSD connected to the PERC H730P controller. Verify the number of drives your design requires before ordering.

Questions about this item

Should I start with one Xeon Bronze 3106 or add a second processor?

The system ships with one 1.7 GHz Xeon Bronze 3106 and supports a second identical CPU when workload demands grow

What does the 64 GB DDR4 mean for actual database or virtualisation workloads?

64 GB of registered ECC DDR4 provides a solid baseline for moderate VM density or mid-size databases, with headroom to expand up to 3 TB if needed

How does the PERC H730P with SATA drives limit real-world throughput?

The H730P manages the twelve 3.5-inch SATA bays, so sustained throughput is bounded by the SATA interface rather than the controller itself
