Storage-dense 2U platform

The PowerEdge R740xd fits twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack height, giving software-defined storage clusters and virtual desktop infrastructure hosts a high-capacity footprint. Two Xeon Gold 6134 processors run at 3.2 GHz with eight cores each, while 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory fills all twenty-four slots for large in-memory workloads.

Hot-swap chassis with redundant power

Twelve-gigabit SAS and SATA drives connect through a PERC H730P controller that supports RAID levels up to 60 and pass-through mode, backed by a battery-protected cache. Dual 1100-watt platinum power supplies and hot-swap bays let administrators replace drives or power modules without downtime, and the included ready rails and front bezel simplify rack integration.

Quad-port networking and remote management

An Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links for flexible top-of-rack connectivity. iDRAC 9 Enterprise provides full out-of-band control, firmware updates and virtual console access from any browser, reducing the need for physical visits to the data centre.
