Dell PowerEdge R740xd 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built for storage-dense workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors at 3.2 GHz, 256 GB of DDR4 memory and 24 hot-swap drive bays populated with 600 GB SAS disks. Redundant 1100 W power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise management are included.

Suited for software-defined storage

This configuration fits organisations that need high local capacity in a compact rack footprint. The dual-socket design and 24-bay chassis support scale-out storage clusters and VDI host pools. Buyers who require faster flash media or additional PCIe expansion beyond the provided network daughter card should evaluate other platforms.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS chassis with H730P controller

The single specification that determines fit is the 24-bay 2.5-inch SAS backplane paired with the Dell PERC H730P 2 GB controller. It defines the drive count, interface speed and RAID options available without adding external enclosures.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell PowerEdge R740xd ship with the 24× 600 GB SAS drives and the PERC H730P controller already installed?

Yes, the server includes 24 Dell Enterprise 600 GB 10 K SAS 12 Gb/s 2.5" drives and the PERC H730P 2 GB controller with battery, supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through.

Should I choose the configuration with the Intel X520/I350 quad-port card for 10 GbE SFP+ uplinks or a different network option?

This unit comes with the Intel X520/I350 daughter card providing two 1 GbE ports and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, so no separate network card is required for 10 GbE connectivity.

What does the 3.2 GHz Xeon Gold 6134 speed mean for actual workloads when the turbo reaches 3.7 GHz?

The two 8-core Xeon Gold 6134 processors run at a 3.2 GHz base frequency and can boost to 3.7 GHz under load, giving strong single-thread performance for virtualization, databases and software-defined storage tasks.
