DELL PowerEdge R640 4LFF Xeon Gold 6154 256GB DDR4 No Drive

Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server built for compute-dense workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon Gold 6154 processor running at 3 GHz with 18 cores and 24.75 MB cache. Installed memory totals 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs arranged as sixteen 16 GB modules. The chassis provides four 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H740P RAID controller, but no drives are included.

Suits virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This configuration suits teams that need strong single-socket performance and large memory capacity for virtualisation, in-memory databases or high-performance computing. The 10 GbE dual-port 562T adapter and iDRAC9 Enterprise licence simplify network and remote management. Buyers who need dual-processor throughput from day one, more than four 3.5-inch bays, or installed storage should evaluate alternative platforms.

Single Xeon Gold 6154 with 18 cores

The defining specification is the single Intel Xeon Gold 6154 processor delivering 18 cores at 3 GHz. With a maximum of two sockets supported, the system can scale to a second identical CPU later, but ships with only one. This core count and clock speed determine whether the server meets your licensing and performance targets for the intended workload.
