Storage-dense 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a two-socket 2U rack server built for storage-heavy workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon Silver 4110 2.1 GHz 8-core processors and 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots. A PERC H730P 2 GB controller manages up to twenty-four 2.5-inch SATA/SAS drive bays, and two 400 GB SATA SSDs are installed. Dual 1100 W platinum power supplies, iDRAC9 Enterprise, quad-port networking with two 10 Gb SFP+ links, rails and a front bezel complete the package.

Ideal for software-defined storage

This configuration suits teams deploying software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure or dense virtualisation clusters where internal drive count matters. The 24-bay chassis and hardware RAID controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Buyers needing more than two processor sockets, GPU-accelerated compute, or a smaller 1U footprint should consider other form factors.

24-bay 2.5-inch SATA/SAS capacity

The defining specification is the twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays behind a single 2U rack height, served by a 12 Gb/s PERC H730P controller with battery-backed cache. This density determines whether the server can hold the local storage your workload requires without adding external enclosures.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the PowerEdge R740xd and what must I buy separately?

The server ships with two Xeon Silver 4110 processors, 512 GB DDR4 in 16 modules, a PERC H730P controller, two 400 GB SATA SSDs, an X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, two 1100 W redundant power supplies, rails and a bezel. Additional drives or memory must be purchased separately.

Which memory configuration should I choose for the 24-slot DDR4 board?

The system arrives with 512 GB across 16 slots using 32 GB modules at 2400 MHz; the remaining 8 slots can accept up to 3 TB total if you add more registered ECC DDR4 DIMMs.

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock with 3.0 GHz turbo mean for real workloads?

Each 8-core Xeon Silver 4110 runs at 2.1 GHz and can boost to 3.0 GHz under load, giving 16 total cores for virtualization, databases or software-defined storage tasks.
