DELL PowerEdge R640 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon Gold 6134 3.2GHz 8-Core 256GB DDR4 8x 2.4TB SAS H730P

Dense 1U Dual-Socket Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server built for dense scale-out data centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.20 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo, each providing eight cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules and uses the Intel C620 chipset with LGA 3647 sockets.

Suits Virtualisation and Database Clusters

This configuration targets environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit, such as virtualisation hosts, database clusters or high-performance computing nodes. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies, iDRAC 9 Enterprise remote management and a quad-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ network daughter card support continuous operation. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or more than 24 DIMM slots should look at other platforms.

Eight-Bay 2.5-Inch SAS Storage

The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 2.4 TB 10K SAS hard drives connected to a PERC H730P 2 GB 12 Gb/s controller with battery-backed cache. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes for flexible data protection. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack installation.
