Two Intel Xeon Gold 6238R processors (28 cores each, 2.20GHz base clock) and 256GB of DDR4 memory power this Dell PowerEdge R740xd 2U rack server. Storage comes as eight 3.84TB SATA SSDs, 30.72TB raw, occupying eight bays of the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis and leaving 16 free.
A PERC H740P RAID controller with 8GB of cache, 2 × 1GbE RJ45 + 2 × 10GbE RJ45 networking (Intel X550) and dual 1100W power supplies complete the specification. Also included: iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management and rack rails.
All-flash drives keep storage latency low, so the 56 cores and 256GB can be put to work on transactional databases, analytics or a dense set of virtual machines. Set up as RAID 10, the eight drives keep half their raw space and stay mirrored.
Where hard-disk builds of the R740xd favour capacity, this one favours responsiveness with flash storage. Memory here is twice that of a lighter R740xd configuration, leaving more headroom for memory-bound work.
Certified refurbished condition: the server is inspected, bench-tested and data-wiped in Johannesburg.
