DELL PowerEdge R640 4LFF 2x Xeon Silver 4214 512GB DDR4

Purpose-built 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors running at 2.2 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It includes a PERC H740P RAID controller and a dual-port 10 GbE 562T network adapter, all powered by redundant 750 W supplies and managed through iDRAC9 Enterprise. This configuration targets organisations that need dense compute and large memory capacity in a single rack unit.

Suited for memory-intensive workloads.

This system suits virtualisation hosts, database nodes and analytics platforms that benefit from 512 GB of DDR4 across two 12-core CPUs. The chassis provides only four 3.5-inch drive bays with SATA connectivity, so buyers who require more than four internal drives or who need GPU acceleration should consider alternative platforms.

Four 3.5-inch SATA bays define storage capacity

The single specification that determines fit is the four-bay 3.5-inch SATA backplane paired with the PERC H740P controller. It limits internal storage to four hard drives or SSDs and does not support additional drive cages, making the bay count the decisive factor for deployment planning.
