Blade Server for Dense Compute

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for high-density data-centre deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 32 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 slots and two 1.92 TB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC S140 controller.

Suits Virtualisation and HPC Clusters

This blade fits organisations running virtualisation, private cloud or high-performance computing workloads that need maximum cores per rack unit. Buyers who need more than two processors, larger local storage bays, or GPU acceleration for AI training should look at a different platform. The fixed half-height form factor also limits PCIe expansion compared with full-height alternatives.

Dual Xeon 8160 Delivers 56 Cores Total

The pair of Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs provides 56 combined cores, which is the primary measure of throughput for heavily threaded applications. Memory capacity can scale to 1.5 TB using the 16 DDR4 slots, and the S140 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 across SATA or SAS drives. A Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 Gb daughter card handles network connectivity.

Questions about this item

Does this blade require a Dell PowerEdge MX or M1000e chassis to operate?

Yes, the PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade that must be installed in a compatible MX or M1000e chassis for power, cooling and connectivity.

Can I keep my existing DDR4 2666MHz Registered ECC modules when expanding memory on this server?

Yes, the server uses DDR4 2666MHz Registered ECC memory across 16 slots; matching modules can be added up to the 1.5TB or 2TB maximum.

How do I verify the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management is functioning after installation?

Connect to the iDRAC9 IP address via browser; the Enterprise licence dashboard will display system health, firmware inventory and remote console access.
