Dense storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores each. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 memory and a Dell PERC H730P controller managing twenty-four 600 GB SAS drives. Redundant 1100 W power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise remote management complete the package.

Suits storage-heavy workloads

This configuration fits software-defined storage clusters, virtual desktop infrastructure and service-provider environments that need high drive density in a compact 2U form factor. The twenty-four 2.5-inch bays and dual 10 GbE SFP+ ports support demanding I/O patterns. Buyers who need solid-state media or more than twenty-four drive bays should consider other platforms.

Twenty-four 600 GB SAS drives

The single specification that determines fit is the installed drive count and interface: twenty-four 600 GB 10 K SAS disks behind a 12 Gb/s PERC H730P controller. That combination fixes usable capacity, spindle speed and RAID options before any reconfiguration.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the two Xeon Gold 6130 processors are running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores each after installation?

Check the system BIOS or iDRAC 9 Enterprise inventory; both will show two CPUs at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores per socket.

Which components are included and which must be purchased separately?

The unit ships with 2× Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs, 128 GB DDR4 (8× 16 GB), PERC H730P controller, 24× 600 GB 10K SAS drives, X520/I350 quad-port NIC, iDRAC 9 Enterprise, 2× 1100 W PSUs, bezel and rails. No extra parts are required for basic operation.

Which memory capacity should I choose if I need room to grow beyond the installed 128 GB?

The board has 24 DDR4 slots and supports up to 3 TB; the current 128 GB uses 8 slots, leaving 16 slots free for future expansion.
