This Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built around two 16-core Intel Xeon Silver 4216 CPUs at 2.10GHz and 128GB of DDR4. The drive complement is twelve 600GB 15K SAS hard drives, 7.2TB before RAID, occupying twelve bays of the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis and leaving twelve free.
Around that sit a PERC H740P RAID controller with 8GB of cache, 2 × 1GbE RJ45 + 2 × 10GbE RJ45 networking (Intel X550) and dual 1100W power supplies. Also included: iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management and rack rails.
On 32 cores and 128GB it can serve as a small hypervisor host, an application server or a departmental database. With twelve drives, RAID 6 keeps ten drives' worth of capacity and survives two simultaneous drive failures. With a redundant pair of supplies, each can sit on its own power circuit.
Flash builds of the R740xd respond faster; this one is the capacity choice. Memory here is twice that of a lighter R740xd configuration, leaving more headroom for memory-bound work.
It is supplied certified refurbished: inspected, bench-tested and data-wiped in Johannesburg before release.
