Dynamically provision to maximize workload performance and drive efficient infrastructure
Disaggregate and granularly reassign resources with the PowerEdge MX architecture to maximize utilization and minimize overprovisioning and stranded infrastructure. PowerEdge MX740c fully configurable, no compromise compute provides impressive performance in compact customizable configurations for workload optimization.
- Scale compute resources with second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors and tailor performance based on your unique workload requirements.
- Flexible memory configurations from capacities of 8GB to 3TB; RDIMMs and LRDIMMs for reduced memory loading and greater density.
- High performance Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSD delivers exceptional endurance in demanding enterprise environments.
Registered DIMM – Provides for higher capacity options and advanced RAS features. It is the most commonly used DIMM type, and offers the best mix of frequency, capacity, and rank structure choices.
Load Reduced DIMM – Provides maximum capacity beyond that of an RDIMM but at a higher power consumption. Uses a buffer to reduce memory loading to a single load on all DDR signals, allowing for greater density
(also known as Intel Optane DC persistent memory): Provides a large memory capacity at an affordable price. Any application can take advantage of DCPMM in Memory Mode with a compatible operating system. Unlock more performance and persistency when using an application that supports App Direct Mode. DCPMM is used along with RDIMMs or LRDIMMs and a maximum number of 6 DCPMMs can be used per CPU. This persistent memory technology does not require a battery.
Non-Volatile DIMM – Provides a persistent memory solution with NAND and DRAM that maintains data in power loss, system crash, or normal shutdown. This solution requires a battery as a power source for an AC loss condition. It can be used along with RDIMMs.
The system can support 1 Mini-Mezz and 1 Internal PERC or is can handle 1 Jumbo PERC which will do the work of both the Mini-Mezz and the Internal PERC. This Fabric C slot is how you are able to connect the MX5016s Storage Array to this compute sled.
The Mini-Mezzanine is install in the rear of the system near the Fab A and B Mezzanine Cards. This Mini Mezzanine gets connect to the Fab C in the MX7000 Enclosure. Only certain cards are supported here.
This Internal PERC Module is considered the MX version of the PERC cards. This card controls the internal drives on this compute sled. There is a dedicated slot for this PERC near the front of the system. This is not supported if a JUMBO PERC is installed. They use the same SCREW to connect to the chassis.
The Jumbo PERC is very unique it does the action of both the Mini-Mezzanin card and the Internal PERC. Not only can this control the internal drives but with also controls the External Storage Arrays that are connected to the Fab C in the back of the MX7000 Enclosure. This is one way to connect to the MX5016s Storage Array. If this is installed, the system does not support the Mini-Mezzanine or the Internal PERC.
The MX740c has the option to install the OS with the BOSS Module. If you're trying to boot the Hypervisor you can install the IDSDM. These two cards can't be installed together. They take up the same slot. Likewise, you are able to manage the iDRAC Remote Management with the vFlash Module.
This iDRAC vFlash Module lets you install and manage the system remotely. You are also able to easily upgrade to the enterprise software with a Micro SD vFlash card that controls this all.
The Internal Dual SD Module supported up to 2 Micro SD cards for redundancy when loading the Hypervisor OS system. This is not suitable for loading a full OS. The Boss card will do that. The IDSDM and the BOSS card can not be installed together.
This Boot Optimized Sub System is ideal for loading the OS on to any server. It saves a drive from being allocated for this job and does not take up any PCIe slots. The BOSS and IDSDM can not be installed together.
