Dell PowerEdge R740xd 24SFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6246R processors running at 3.4 GHz and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller for SAS connectivity. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Suits storage-heavy databases

This configuration fits organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity behind a deep drive bay count. It is not suited for buyers who require GPU acceleration, a smaller 1U form factor, or a server that arrives with storage drives already installed.

24-bay 2.5-inch chassis with PERC H730P controller

The single specification that decides fit is the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis paired with the PERC H730P controller. This combination dictates how many SAS drives you can attach and which RAID levels are supported. Verify that your storage design matches this bay count and controller before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 3.4 GHz Xeon Gold 6246R processors are recognised after power-on?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface during POST and verify both CPUs show 16 cores each at 3.4 GHz with 35.75 MB cache.

Which drive caddies and drives must I supply for the 24 SFF bays?

The 24 × 2.5" SAS bays ship empty; you must provide 2.5" SAS drives and Dell-compatible caddies for every bay you populate.

Should I choose the 384 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory up to the 3 TB limit?

Start with the installed 384 GB DDR4 ECC Registered; add matching DDR4 modules later if workloads exceed that capacity.
