Blade server for virtualization and HPC

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for virtualization, private cloud and high-performance computing workloads. Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8260 processors provide 24 cores each at 2.4 GHz with 3.9 GHz turbo. 32 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory is installed across four slots.

Check chassis compatibility and memory headroom

This blade fits only Dell PowerEdge MX or M1000e enclosures, so verify you have an available half-height slot and matching fabric modules. The board offers 16 DDR4 slots and supports up to 1.5 TB, leaving room for expansion beyond the factory 32 GB. Storage uses SATA or SAS drives behind the PERC H330 controller with RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 or 50.

Network daughter card and remote management included

A Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 Gb blade network daughter card is factory-fitted for high-speed connectivity. iDRAC 9 Enterprise provides full out-of-band management with automation features. No operating system, front bezel or ready rails are supplied, so plan for OS deployment and rack hardware separately.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must I add to run the blade?

The blade includes two Xeon 8260 processors, 32 GB DDR4 memory, two 960 GB SATA SSDs, a PERC H330 controller, a 57810S-K 10 Gb dual-port network card and iDRAC9 Enterprise. It requires a compatible MX or M1000e chassis, power supplies and an operating system.

Should I choose the 32 GB configuration or expand toward the 1.5 TB maximum?

The system ships with 4 x 8 GB DDR4 2933 MHz modules across 16 slots. Start with 32 GB for light virtualization; add registered ECC DDR4 modules later to scale toward the 1.5 TB limit for larger databases or HPC workloads.

How does the 3.9 GHz turbo speed translate in a real workload?

Each Xeon 8260 runs at 2.4 GHz base and can boost to 3.9 GHz on active cores, giving 24 cores per processor responsive performance for bursty database queries or compile jobs while the H330 handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 on the installed SSDs.
