Configured as a 2U rack server, this Dell PowerEdge R740 combines a pair of Intel Xeon Silver 4210R chips (2.40GHz, 10 cores each) with 64GB of DDR4. It carries two 3.84TB SAS SSDs for 7.68TB of raw capacity in two bays of the 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis, so 14 remain open for expansion.
The build is rounded out by PERC H740P hardware RAID (8GB cache), dual-port 10GbE RJ45 networking (Intel X550) and dual 1100W power supplies. You also get an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence for out-of-band management and a rack rail kit.
20 cores and 64GB suit a general-purpose virtualisation host running a handful of VMs, or dedicated application and database roles. The two drives pair naturally as a RAID 1 mirror.
Compared with a hard-disk build of the same R740, this all-flash configuration trades raw capacity for much lower storage latency. That is twice the memory of a lighter R740 build, which matters most for virtual machines and caching.
Sold as certified refurbished, the server passes inspection and a bench test, and has its storage wiped, in Johannesburg before release.
