Here the Dell PowerEdge R740xd 2U rack server comes with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors (10 cores each, 2.20GHz base clock) alongside 64GB of DDR4 memory. The drive complement is six 4TB 7.2K SAS hard drives, 24TB before RAID, occupying six bays of the 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis and leaving six free. Two 240GB M.2 SATA SSDs on a BOSS card handle the operating system, separate from the data drives.
Supporting hardware includes PERC H740P hardware RAID (8GB cache), 2 × 1GbE RJ45 + 2 × 10GbE SFP+ networking (Intel X710) and dual 1100W power supplies. Also included: an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence for out-of-band management and a rack rail kit.
Roles that fit well include backup and replication targets, video and media archives, and file servers holding years of data. Planned as RAID 6, the six drives leave four drives' worth of usable space with double parity.
Against an all-flash R740xd build, this configuration favours capacity over latency. It is one of the lighter-memory R740xd builds; a configuration with more memory is the step up for memory-bound workloads.
It is supplied certified refurbished: inspected, bench-tested and data-wiped in Johannesburg before release.
