2U Dual-Socket Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rackmount server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors, each running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across four modules and a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache. The platform targets organisations that need dense 2.5-inch drive capacity in a two-socket chassis for software-defined storage or virtual desktop infrastructure.

Hot-Swap Bays Redundant Power Rails

Twenty-four front-access 2.5-inch bays support hot-swap SATA and SAS drives, while two 1100 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy. The PERC H730P enables RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections, and iDRAC 9 Enterprise gives full remote management. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack installation.

Two 800 GB SATA SSDs Installed

Only two 800 GB SATA solid-state drives are fitted from the factory, leaving twenty-two bays empty for additional capacity. Buyers who need more storage must populate the remaining slots with compatible 2.5-inch SATA or SAS drives. The system maxes out at two processors and 3 TB of DDR4 across twenty-four slots, so CPU upgrades are not possible beyond the installed pair.

Questions about this item

What storage interfaces does the PERC H730P controller support and what throughput does it cap at?

The Dell PERC H730P supports SAS and SATA drives at up to 12Gb/s, providing RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a 2GB cache and battery backup.

What are the physical mounting requirements for this 2U rack server?

The chassis fits a standard 2U rack space and ships with Dell Ready Rails and a front bezel for tool-less installation in a four-post rack cabinet.

How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is commonly missed?

Two Xeon Gold 6134 processors are pre-installed in LGA 3647 sockets; 64GB DDR4-2666 ECC RDIMMs occupy four of 24 slots — verify the memory configuration matches the processor population for full channel performance.
