DELL PowerEdge R640 10B 40-Core 2x Xeon Gold 6148 2.40GHz 128GB DDR4 H730P 10x 600GB rack server

Dell PowerEdge R640 10-bay rack server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage, backups, and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors deliver 40 total cores at 2.40GHz on LGA3647 sockets. The system includes 128GB of DDR4 memory and a PERC H730P storage controller.

Suited for dense virtualization

The 10-bay 2.5-inch chassis supports up to ten 600GB 10K SAS hard drives, providing capacity for operating systems, applications, virtual machines, and business data. Integrated GPU output handles basic management display needs. Buyers who require dedicated GPU compute, more than two processor sockets, or memory capacity beyond 3TB should evaluate alternative platforms that provide those capabilities.

10-bay 2.5-inch drive configuration

The defining specification is the ten 2.5-inch drive bays paired with the H730P RAID controller, which determines how many SAS drives can be installed and how they are managed. This layout fixes the maximum raw storage at 600GB per bay and the RAID levels available to the controller. Confirm the bay count and controller match your storage design before purchase.
