DELL

DELL PowerEdge R740xd2 26 Bay 3.5" 2x Xeon Gold 6230 2.1GHz 20 Core 16GB DDR4 HBA330

SKU CH-P4N5-6938J

A 2U server with 26 3.5-inch drive trays, dual Xeon Gold 6230 20-core processors, 16GB DDR4, HBA330 controller, dual 10/25Gb networking and iDRAC 9 Enterprise management

  • Dual Xeon Gold 6230 CPUs deliver 20 cores each for heavy workloads
  • 16GB DDR4-2666 ECC memory supports data integrity under load
  • PERC HBA330 controller provides 12Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity
  • 26 front 3.5-inch drive trays enable massive local storage capacity
  • Dual 1100W platinum power supplies ensure efficient redundant operation

26-Bay 3.5-Inch Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd2 is a 2U server system built around twenty-six 3.5-inch drive bays. Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6230 processors provide twenty cores each at 2.1 GHz with 3.9 GHz turbo. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4-2666 ECC registered memory and a PERC HBA330 controller support SAS and SATA drives. The platform targets organisations that need dense local storage in a standard rack footprint.

Dual 1100-Watt Platinum Power Supplies

Two 1100-watt platinum-efficiency power supplies deliver redundant power for the fully populated chassis. The 2U form factor uses front-to-back airflow to cool the processors, memory and twenty-six drive trays under typical workloads. iDRAC 9 Enterprise provides remote thermal monitoring and power management without requiring physical access to the rack.

Dual-Port 10/25Gb SFP28 OCP Mezzanine

A Broadcom 57414 dual-port 10/25Gb SFP28 OCP 2.0 mezzanine card adds high-speed network connectivity alongside the integrated dual-port 1GbE LOM. The HBA330 storage controller handles twelve-gigabit SAS and SATA traffic to the drive trays. Front bezel and ready rails are not included, so mounting hardware must be sourced separately for rack installation.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 26 3.5-inch drive trays and what step is often missed?

Slide each tray into the front bays until the latch clicks; the step often missed is seating the tray fully so the backplane connector engages on all 26 bays.

What maintenance will the two 1100-watt platinum power supplies need later?

The redundant 1100-watt platinum units are hot-swap; plan to replace a failed module or clean dust from the fan intakes during scheduled downtime.

What limit appears first when the dual Xeon Gold 6230 20-core processors run sustained workloads?

The 16GB DDR4-2666 memory capacity fills before the 20-core CPUs saturate, so memory becomes the first bottleneck under sustained use.
