Dell PowerEdge R640 48-Core Server
The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, and application hosting. It arrives new with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors installed, delivering 48 cores at 2.10GHz. The system includes 384GB of DDR4 memory and an H740P storage controller. Ten 2.5-inch drive bays provide internal storage capacity, with eight bays capable of supporting NVMe drives.
Suits virtualization and database hosts needing
This server suits organisations running multiple virtual machines, heavy database instances, or mixed application workloads that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. The 384GB DDR4 configuration supports memory-intensive tasks, while the dual-processor layout maximises throughput in a 1U form factor. Buyers who require GPU acceleration for AI training or rendering should look elsewhere, as only integrated graphics are present. Teams needing more than two sockets or memory beyond 3TB will also need a different platform.
10-bay 2.5-inch chassis with 8 NVMe-capable slots
The defining specification is the front-loading storage array: ten 2.5-inch bays, eight of which are NVMe-capable, paired with the included H740P controller. This density lets you populate high-speed flash for latency-sensitive databases or capacity drives for bulk storage without expanding to a 2U chassis. The 60-unit weight reflects a fully populated configuration, so rack rail planning should account for that mass. Drive selection remains entirely open because no drives are included.

Questions sur cet article
How can I verify the 48-core Xeon Platinum 8160 configuration is running correctly after initial setup?
The BIOS POST screen will display two Xeon Platinum 8160 processors at 2.10GHz with 18 cores each, totalling 48 cores. The H740P controller should appear with its firmware version, and the 384GB DDR4 memory total will be shown before the OS loads.
Which components are included and which must be purchased separately for this R640?
The server ships with dual Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs, 384GB DDR4 RAM, the H740P storage controller, and ten 2.5-inch drive trays. Storage drives and an operating system are not included and must be bought separately.
Which drive capacity or version should I choose for the 10-bay 2.5-inch chassis?
The chassis accepts ten 2.5-inch drives, with eight bays supporting NVMe. Select drive capacities that match your workload — higher-capacity SSDs for dense virtualisation or mixed SSD/HDD sets for tiered storage — all fitting the same 2.5-inch form factor.
