DELL Poweredge XE7740 Server Overview
The Dell PowerEdge XE7740 is a high-performance 4U rack server designed for demanding, compute-intensive workloads, particularly in the realm of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC).

Here are its technical specifications and intended tasks:
Technical Specifications:
- Form Factor: 4U rack server, air-cooled.
- Processors: Supports two Intel® Xeon® 6 series processors (P-core, or "Granite Rapids") with up to 96 cores per processor.
- Accelerators (GPUs):
- Up to 8x PCIe Gen 5 x16 double-width, full-height, full-length GPUs (up to 600W each), including options like Intel Gaudi 3 AI accelerators and NVIDIA H200 NVL GPUs.
- Alternatively, it can support up to 16x PCIe Gen 5 x16 single-width, full-height, full-length GPUs (up to 75W each), such as NVIDIA L4 Tensor Core GPUs.
- Memory:
- 32 DDR5 DIMM slots.
- Supports RDIMM (Registered DIMM) memory type.
- Max RAM capacity of 3 TB (with current DIMMs), with future support for 128GB DIMMs to increase capacity to 4TB.
- DIMM speeds up to 6400 MT/s.
- Storage:
- Front Bay: Up to 8 x EDSFF E3.S Gen5 NVMe (SSD) with a maximum capacity of 122.88 TB.
- Internal Boot: Boot Optimized Storage Subsystem (BOSS-N1 DC-MHS) with HWRAID 1 and 2 x M.2 NVMe SSDs for the operating system.

- Power Supplies: 3200W Titanium (200-240 VAC or 240 VDC), hot-swap redundant.
- Cooling: Air cooling, with multiple sets of high-performance platinum-grade fans.
- Ports:
- Front: 1 x USB 2.0 Type A (iDRAC/BMC Direct), 1 x optional USB 2.0 Type A, 1 x optional Mini-DisplayPort.
- Rear: 1 x dedicated Ethernet port for iDRAC management, 1 x VGA, 2 x USB 3.1 Type A ports.
- Internal: 1 x USB 3.1 Type A port.
- Management: iDRAC, iDRAC Direct, iDRAC RESTful API with Redfish, Dell Repository Manager, Dell System Update, Enterprise Catalogs, IPMI, RACADM CLI.
- Security: Chassis Intrusion Detection, Cryptographically signed firmware, Data at Rest Encryption (SEDs with local or external key management), Secure Boot, Secured Component Verification, Silicon Root of Trust, Secure Erase, System Lockdown (requires iDRAC10 Enterprise or Datacenter), TPM 2.0 FIPS, CC-TCG certified.
- Operating Systems: Canonical Ubuntu Server LTS, RedHat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, VMWare ESXi.
Intended Tasks and Use Cases:
The Dell PowerEdge XE7740 is specifically designed for workloads that require immense computational power and high-speed data processing, making it ideal for:
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML):
- AI Inferencing: Executing trained AI models for real-time predictions and analysis.
- Model Fine-tuning: Adapting pre-trained large language models (LLMs) or other AI models to specific datasets and tasks.
- Generative AI: Supporting the creation of new content, code, or designs.
- Emerging Enterprise AI Applications: Providing a robust platform for various AI initiatives across industries.
- High-Performance Computing (HPC):
- Executing complex scientific simulations and modeling (e.g., bioinformatics, climate modeling, physics).
- Parallel processing of vast datasets.
- Supporting research institutions and organizations with large-scale computational demands.
- Data Analytics: Extracting insights from large datasets, especially when combined with AI/ML techniques.
- Graphics and Compute-Intensive Workflows: Tasks requiring significant GPU acceleration, such as rendering, scientific visualization, and complex data processing.
In essence, the XE7740 is built to handle demanding workloads that benefit from powerful CPUs and a high density of advanced GPU accelerators, balancing cost, performance, and scalability. It is part of Dell's strategy to provide infrastructure for the growing "AI Factory" ecosystem.
