DELL PowerEdge M640 Blade Server 2x Xeon 8160 2.1GHz 24C 512GB DDR4 S140 2x 2.5" 57810S-K iDRAC9 Enterprise

PowerEdge M640 dual-processor blade

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for dense compute environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU delivers 24 cores, providing substantial parallel processing capacity. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4-2666 registered ECC memory across 16 slots.

Suited for virtualisation and HPC clusters

This blade targets organisations running virtualised workloads, private clouds or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from high core counts and large memory footprints. The integrated PERC S140 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 across two 2.5-inch drive bays. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or more than two 2.5-inch drives should evaluate alternative platforms.

Dual 10 GbE network daughter card installed

A Dell Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 GbE blade network daughter card provides high-speed connectivity within the MX or M1000e chassis. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise for out-of-band administration. The server includes two 2.5-inch SAS/SATA caddies but no operating system, front bezel or ready rails.
