Dual 8-core Xeon server

The PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors running at 2.1 GHz, each providing eight cores for a total of sixteen threads. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across twenty-four slots and includes a PERC H730P controller with battery backup. Dual 1100 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management complete the base configuration.

Storage-dense workloads

This platform suits organisations deploying software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure or general virtualisation where internal drive count matters. The twenty-four 2.5-inch bays and 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller support large RAID sets, while the quad-port network daughter card adds two 10 Gb SFP+ links. Buyers needing GPU compute density or single-thread frequency above 3.0 GHz turbo should evaluate other form factors.

24-bay 2.5-inch chassis

The defining specification is the twenty-four-bay 2.5-inch drive cage in a 2U height, which sets the maximum number of hot-swap drives this server can hold. Combined with the H730P controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, it determines whether the system meets a project's raw capacity and redundancy requirements.

Questions about this item

What storage speeds does the PERC H730P 12Gb/s controller cap in practice?

The PERC H730P 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and pass-through for the installed 400GB SATA SSDs and additional SATA drives.

What physical space and mounting hardware does this 2U server require?

The R740xd occupies 2U of rack height and ships with ready rails and a front bezel for standard rack installation.

How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Two Xeon Silver 4110 processors are pre-installed in LGA 3647 sockets; 256GB DDR4 2400MHz registered ECC memory fills 8 of 24 slots in a supported configuration.
