Dual Xeon Platinum 8260 Blade

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server equipped with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8260 processors. Each CPU provides 24 cores at a base frequency of 2.4 GHz and a 3.9 GHz turbo. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across four modules. It is built for virtualization, private cloud and high-performance computing workloads.

Chassis Integration and Expansion

This blade requires a PowerEdge MX or M1000e enclosure for power, cooling and fabric connectivity. The Dell PERC H330 controller manages two 1.92 TB SATA SSDs with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50. A Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 Gb network daughter card provides high-speed I/O. Sixteen DDR4 slots allow memory expansion up to 1.5 TB.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The dual 24-core configuration delivers 56 total threads for continuous multi-threaded throughput. DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory maintains data integrity during extended compute tasks. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote monitoring and firmware updates without host downtime. The half-height form factor fits dense deployments while the H330 controller sustains mixed read-write patterns across the SATA SSD array.

Questions about this item

What thermal load do the two Xeon Platinum 8260 CPUs add to the blade under continuous full-speed operation?

Each Xeon Platinum 8260 runs at a 2.4 GHz base frequency with a 3.9 GHz turbo, and the pair installed is the maximum processor count the blade supports.

How loud are the chassis fans when this blade runs at full load for extended periods?

The blade itself contains no fans; cooling is provided by the PowerEdge MX or M1000e chassis fans, whose speed and noise depend on the chassis configuration and total blade count.

Which chassis and interconnect modules must already be present for this M640 blade to operate?

The blade requires a PowerEdge MX or M1000e enclosure and a compatible fabric module such as the installed Broadcom 57810S-K 10 Gb dual-port daughter card for network connectivity.
