Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd packs twelve 3.5-inch drive bays and dual Xeon Gold 6134 processors into a 2U rack chassis. It targets organisations that need high local capacity for software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure or service-provider workloads.

Verify rack depth and network cabling

Confirm your rack can accommodate the 2U height and that power distribution can feed two 750-watt redundant supplies. The system ships with a quad-port daughter card providing two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ links, so ensure compatible transceivers and switch ports are available.

Dual platinum supplies manage heat and noise

Redundant 750-watt platinum-efficiency power supplies share the load, keeping inlet temperatures steady under typical enterprise workloads. Fan speeds scale with CPU and drive activity, so acoustic output rises during heavy RAID rebuilds or sustained compute tasks.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with all 12 drive bays populated and are rails included?

Yes, the 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis comes with 12 Dell Enterprise 4TB 7.2K SATA drives installed and the Ready Rails kit is included in the box.

Which Xeon Gold 6134 configuration is fitted — single or dual socket?

Two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 3.2GHz 8-core processors are installed, filling both LGA 3647 sockets on the C620 chipset.

What usable capacity does the PERC H730P provide with the 12 installed 4TB drives in RAID 6?

RAID 6 across the 12 x 4TB SATA drives yields roughly 40TB of usable space after two-drive parity overhead.
