Dell PowerEdge R640 1U rack server 2× Xeon Gold 6130 2.1 GHz 16-core 128 GB DDR4 2× 400 GB SSD H730P

Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores each. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots and includes a PERC H730P 2 GB RAID controller with battery backup. Two 400 GB SATA SSDs and a quad-port 1 GbE plus 10 Gb SFP+ network daughter card are factory installed.

Suits dense virtualisation and scale-out workloads

This configuration fits organisations that need high core density and redundant 750 W platinum power supplies in a single rack unit. The iDRAC 9 Enterprise licence enables full remote management for lights-out operations. Buyers who require more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or who need a different storage controller should evaluate alternative platforms.

Eight 2.5-inch bay limit defines capacity

The chassis provides exactly eight hot-swap 2.5-inch bays, so total internal raw capacity is capped by the number of drives that physically fit. With two 400 GB SSDs already installed, six bays remain for expansion using SATA or SAS media supported by the H730P controller.
