Dell PowerEdge R740xd 24-bay server
The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server fitted with two Xeon Silver 4216 processors and 384GB of DDR4 memory. It targets organisations that need dense local storage and dual-socket compute in a single chassis.
Verify rack depth, power and networking
Confirm the rack can accept a 36-inch deep unit and that two 1100W supplies match the available PDU circuits. The installed 10GbE 562T adapter requires compatible switch ports, and the PERC H730P controller manages the 24 SATA bays.
24 hot-swap bays and iDRAC9 remote control
The 2.5-inch drive cage supports 24 hot-swap SATA drives for rapid replacement without downtime. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise provides out-of-band management, firmware updates and console redirection over the network.

Questions about this item
What comes with the server and what must I purchase separately?
The chassis includes two Xeon Silver 4216 processors, 384GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, a PERC H730P RAID controller, a dual-port 10Gb Ethernet 562T adapter, two 1100W power supplies and 24 empty 2.5-inch drive bays; drives and rail kit are not included.
Which configuration choice matters most for this model?
The only variable is the storage you add — choose up to 24 SATA drives (2.5-inch) to fill the 24SFF bays; CPU, memory and networking are already fixed at 2x 16-core 2.1GHz Xeons, 384GB DDR4 and 10Gb Ethernet.
What does the 384GB DDR4 figure mean once the server is running?
It provides 384GB of ECC registered DDR4 across all memory slots, leaving capacity to expand up to the platform maximum of 3TB if workloads grow.
