DELL PowerEdge R740xd 2U Server System

The DELL PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server system built for dense storage and compute. It ships new with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz with 8 cores each. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 slots and two 400 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730P controller. Redundant 1100 W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are standard.

Suited for virtualisation

This server suits organisations deploying virtual desktop infrastructure, software-defined storage or general virtualisation clusters that benefit from 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links supports mixed traffic. Buyers who need more than two physical processors or a different drive-bay count should consider other form factors.

Dual Xeon Gold 6134 processors define compute

The two Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs provide 16 total cores at 3.2 GHz base with 3.7 GHz turbo, setting the hard limit for thread count and single-thread speed. Memory can scale to 3 TB using the remaining DDR4 slots, but processor configuration is fixed at the maximum of two sockets. This specification decides whether the platform matches your licensing and performance targets.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the installed 128GB DDR4 and the maximum 3TB capacity?

The system ships with eight 16GB DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC modules occupying eight of the 24 slots. You can add up to 16 more modules to reach the 3TB limit using compatible DDR4 registered ECC memory.

What does the 3.2GHz base and 3.7GHz turbo on the two Xeon Gold 6134 processors deliver in this server?

Each processor has 8 cores at 3.2GHz base clock and can boost to 3.7GHz. With two CPUs installed you have 16 total cores for virtualization, software-defined storage or VDI workloads.

What storage speeds does the PERC H730P 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller and the installed 400GB SATA SSDs provide?

The H730P supports 12Gb/s SAS and 6Gb/s SATA. The two installed 400GB enterprise SSDs run at SATA 6Gb/s and can be configured in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60.
