High-density 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built for storage-intensive workloads. It combines two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors with 768GB of DDR4 memory and a PERC H730P controller. Twenty-four 800GB SATA SSDs fill the front bays, delivering high capacity in a compact form factor. Redundant 1100W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise management complete the package.

Suited for software-defined storage and VDI

This platform targets organisations deploying software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure or dense virtualisation clusters. The 24-bay chassis and dual 16-core CPUs provide the throughput and core count those use cases demand. Buyers needing more than 24 drive slots or a different drive interface should consider alternative chassis designs. Workloads requiring GPU acceleration or specialised compute cards will not be supported by this configuration.

24-bay 2.5-inch drive chassis

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch drive chassis paired with the PERC H730P controller. It sets the maximum number of installed drives at 24 and limits the interface to SATA or SAS. Any deployment requiring more bays or a different drive form factor cannot use this server. The chassis also determines the 2U rack height and the included rail kit dimensions.
