Storage-dense 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built for storage-heavy workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 24 cores. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots and a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs come installed in the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis.

Suited for virtualisation

This platform fits environments that need high core counts and internal drive density in a 2U form factor. The dual 1100 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise support continuous operation. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets or who require a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

24-bay 2.5-inch drive capacity

The chassis supports up to 24 hot-swap 2.5-inch SATA or SAS drives, making the bay count the decisive specification for storage scaling. The installed PERC H730P controller handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through modes. This drive capacity determines whether the server matches the planned storage footprint.
