Here the Dell PowerEdge R740xd 2U rack server comes with two 16-core Intel Xeon Silver 4216 CPUs at 2.10GHz alongside 128GB of DDR4 RAM. The drive complement is twelve 4TB 7.2K SAS hard drives, 48TB before RAID, filling every bay of the 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis. The operating system gets its own home on a BOSS card carrying two 240GB M.2 SATA SSDs.
Supporting hardware includes PERC H740P hardware RAID (8GB cache), 2 × 1GbE RJ45 + 2 × 10GbE SFP+ networking (Intel X710) and dual 1100W power supplies. The configuration also lists 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 twelve drives leave ten drives' worth of usable space with double parity.
Against an all-flash R740xd build, this configuration favours capacity over latency. That is twice the memory of a lighter R740xd build, which matters most for virtual machines and caching.
It is supplied certified refurbished: inspected, bench-tested and data-wiped in Johannesburg before release.
