40-Core Enterprise Performance with High-Speed Tiered SAS Storage
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a powerful and versatile 2U rackmount server engineered for compute-heavy and IOPS-intensive enterprise environments. This configuration features 2 x Intel Xeon Gold 6230 processors, offering 40 physical cores at 2.10GHz, supported by 256GB of DDR4 memory to handle high-concurrency workloads with ease. Storage is fully populated with 16 x 600GB 15K RPM SAS drives running at 12Gbps, delivering 9.6TB of fast-access spinning disk storage—ideal for data-intensive applications where speed and capacity are both essential. The Dell PERC H740P RAID controller with 8GB cache ensures redundancy and throughput, while quad-port RJ-45 networking (2 x 10GbE + 2 x 1GbE) and dual 1100W Platinum PSUs offer network flexibility and failover resilience. Remote access is fully covered with iDRAC9 Enterprise.
Ideal for Virtualisation Hosts, Backup Storage, and Tiered Data Solutions
This R740 build is purpose-built for high-activity workloads—such as virtual machine clusters, on-premise backup environments, or hybrid storage setups that don’t require SSDs but still need consistent, high-speed access. The 15K drives are well-suited for high IOPS needs like database replicas, file sharing under heavy user load, or transactional application data. With 256GB RAM and 40 cores, it’s also ideal for businesses consolidating multiple workloads into fewer nodes while retaining operational headroom. The fully populated 16-bay chassis gives you both immediate performance and long-term scalability, making it a smart investment for growing IT environments.
