High-density 2U storage server

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740xd2 is a 2U rackmount server built for data-intensive workloads that demand high storage capacity in a compact form factor. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6150 processors, each running at 2.7 GHz with 18 cores, and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across eight 16 GB modules. The chassis holds 26 front-accessible 3.5-inch drive bays, all populated with 4 TB 7.2K SATA hard drives managed by a PERC HBA330 controller.

Suited for backup and archive workloads

This configuration targets organisations deploying software-defined storage, large backup repositories or media archives where raw capacity and drive density take priority. The dual 10/25 Gb SFP28 mezzanine card and dual 1 GbE LOM ports provide flexible network connectivity for data ingestion. Buyers who need all-flash performance or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate platforms designed for those workloads.

26-bay 3.5-inch drive capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the 26-bay 3.5-inch drive capacity, delivering over 100 TB of raw spinning-disk storage in 2U of rack space. If the deployment requires that density of SATA hard drives with hardware RAID or HBA management, this server matches the requirement; if the workload needs fewer bays or a different drive form factor, a smaller chassis will be more appropriate.
