Storage-dense 2U rack server

The PowerEdge R740xd is a two-socket 2U rack server built for storage-heavy workloads. It ships with twelve 3.5-inch drive bays populated by 6 TB SATA hard drives and a PERC H730P controller. Dual Xeon Silver 4116 processors and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC memory provide the compute base for virtualised storage or backup targets.

Suits software-defined storage and backup

This configuration fits organisations deploying software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-capacity backup repositories. The twelve-bay chassis and hardware RAID controller simplify large-volume arrays. Buyers who require all-flash performance, GPU acceleration or a 1U form factor should evaluate other configurations.

Twelve 6 TB SATA drives and H730P RAID

The single specification that decides fit is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch chassis filled with 7.2 K RPM SATA drives behind a PERC H730P 2 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. If the workload demands more bays, faster media or a different RAID feature set, this server will not match.
