Dense 2U Storage Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built around twelve 3.5-inch drive bays, dual Xeon Gold 5118 processors and 128 GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with a PERC H730P controller, an Intel X520/I350 quad-port network daughter card, iDRAC 9 Enterprise and redundant 750 W platinum power supplies. The platform targets software-defined storage, service-provider workloads and virtual desktop infrastructure.

Ideal for capacity-heavy workloads.

Organisations that need high raw capacity in a compact rack footprint will match the twelve 4 TB 7.2 K SATA drives and the controller's RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 support. Teams requiring sub-millisecond latency or an all-flash tier should look elsewhere because every bay is populated with mechanical drives and the controller is SAS/SATA only.

Twelve 3.5-inch bays define the storage ceiling

The chassis fits exactly twelve 3.5-inch SATA drives and the installed PERC H730P manages them over a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface. If the deployment needs more than twelve spindles or a different drive form factor, this server cannot accommodate it without external enclosures.
