Purpose-built storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server designed for storage-heavy workloads such as software-defined storage or virtual desktop infrastructure. Two Xeon Silver 4116 processors provide 24 cores at 2.1 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 ECC memory and twenty-four 2.4 TB SAS drives give high capacity in a dense chassis.

Check your rack and network

Verify that your rack accepts 2U rail-mounted servers and that you have 12 Gb/s SAS cabling for the PERC H730P controller. The quad-port daughter card supplies two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, so confirm compatible switch ports and transceivers. Ensure the facility can deliver redundant power to two 1100 W platinum supplies.

Enterprise build with hot-swap access

Redundant hot-swap power supplies and hot-swap drive bays allow component replacement without downtime. The included ready rails and front bezel simplify rack installation and physical security. iDRAC 9 Enterprise provides remote management for firmware updates, monitoring and virtual console access over the network.

Questions about this item

What drives, controllers and accessories ship with the R740xd?

The unit includes 24 Dell Enterprise 2.4TB 10K SAS 2.5" drives, a PERC H730P 2GB controller, Intel X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, two 1100W PSUs, rails and bezel.

Which memory configuration matches the 64GB listed?

It is populated as 4x 16GB DDR4 2400MHz registered ECC modules, leaving 20 of the 24 slots free for expansion up to 3TB.

What sustained throughput can the 24-drive array deliver to the CPUs?

The H730P 12Gb/s SAS controller manages all 24 drives; with 10K SAS media the array can saturate the controller bandwidth for sequential workloads.
