DELL PowerEdge R640 4LFF 2x Xeon Silver 4214 64GB DDR4 No Drive

Dual-socket Xeon Silver 4214 server with 64GB DDR4

This Dell PowerEdge R640 arrives with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors running at 2.2GHz and 64GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides four 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H740P RAID controller. Integrated graphics and a 10GbE two-port 562T adapter handle video and network duties. Dual 750W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing licensed remote

Buyers who want a ready-to-run virtualisation platform with hardware RAID and out-of-band control will find the PERC H740P and iDRAC9 Enterprise licence valuable. Organisations that require drives installed from the factory should look elsewhere, as no storage devices ship with this unit. Workloads demanding GPU acceleration or more than two sockets are not supported by this configuration.

Four 3.5-inch bays define the storage ceiling

The R640 4LFF chassis accepts up to four 3.5-inch SATA drives connected to the PERC H740P controller, so total raw capacity is limited by the number and size of drives you add. Memory can scale to 7.68TB of DDR4 across the available slots, but the drive-bay count is fixed at four.
