Storage-dense 2U server for scale-out workloads

The PowerEdge R740xd packs twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack chassis, giving software-defined storage clusters and virtual desktop infrastructure room to grow without expanding the rack footprint. Dual Xeon Gold 6134 processors and 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz ECC memory provide the compute headroom for hyper-converged deployments.

Sustained throughput with hardware RAID

The PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache maintains consistent I/O under heavy mixed read-write streams, while battery-backed write cache protects data during unexpected power events. Dual 1100 W platinum supplies share the load so a single failure never interrupts operation.

Twenty-four hot-swap bays decide the fit

Only configurations that need dense local storage in a 2U form factor should consider this chassis; buyers who need fewer bays or a different drive form factor will find the bay count impossible to change.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 1100 Watt platinum PSUs draw when the R740xd runs at full load all day?

Each supply is rated at 1100 W platinum efficiency; actual draw depends on the workload you place on the two Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs and the 64 GB DDR4 memory.

Which drives and caddies must I already own to populate the 24 front bays?

The chassis includes 24 empty 2.5-inch trays for SAS or SATA drives; you supply the drives themselves.

Will my existing PCIe 3.0 add-in cards work with the Intel C620 chipset and the X520/I350 daughter card?

The C620 chipset and the X520/I350 card both operate on PCIe 3.0 lanes, so PCIe 3.0 cards are compatible.
