Having just picked up an R740XD, I would agree that it's way better for storage applications. However, if you're not using it for storage/san etc... you might want to go with the R740, especially if you need to use any of the PCIe slots for video cards/accelerators or raid/networking cards.

I've heard that wearing headphones makes videos easier to hear, maybe give that a try gents!

Where is audio output port for Dell R740 Thanks and God Bless

[@zedking5569]

Is it normal to hear a server fan noise from outside of the data center for a few seconds ? I did rebooted it manually and when I walked out I heard that noise , I'm just a desktop engineer and I was wondering if that is normal .

[@ualdayan]

When a server is booting typically the fans will revv to max briefly as it does bootup tests.

Hi , can you fit the r740xd rear backplane cage into the r740 ?

[@moondawson2165]

Hi guys, will R730 Ram work with R740?

6:48 Merde! They show me how their "just insert" memory modules in FAKE places. Server will blame them at every sturtup! 11:20 - does that "engeneer" read DELL's R740 USER MANUAL?

Товарищи, это пример полной деградации. Как ни странно, наиболее вменяемым из этой троицы выглядит ВЕДУЩИЙ, которому CEO и лопоухий "инженер" трахают мозги. Ладно, я признаю, что gen14 DELL выглядит внешне у@#ищем. Внутре - они хорошие, если бы не идиотская идея сделать всё это хозяйство "максимально гибким". И я имею в виду не только показанные в ролике, есть ещё R440 и R540 (от последнего вообще хочется рвать на жопе волоса). В результате, разобраться во всех пертурбаций с мезонинами, рейдами, проводами к бэкплейну переднему и заднему сможет только кто? Да только сам DELL. И то не всегда. А уж предоставить заказчику сервер с заданной конфигурацией - за@#ешся с мягким знаком.
