PowerEdge M640 blade with dual Xeon Gold 5115
The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for dense compute clusters. Two Intel Xeon Gold 5115 processors running at 2.4 GHz deliver twenty cores total. The system ships with 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H330 SAS storage controller managing two 1.8 TB SAS hard drives.
Suited for memory-heavy virtualisation.
This configuration suits virtualisation hosts, database nodes and high-performance computing jobs that benefit from large memory capacity and dual-socket throughput. The integrated graphics and absence of discrete GPU support make it unsuitable for rendering, AI training or VDI workloads that require hardware acceleration. Buyers needing PCIe expansion beyond the blade form factor should evaluate rack-mount alternatives.
384 GB DDR4 installed with 1 TB maximum
The installed 384 GB of DDR4 SDRAM operates across twenty-four DIMM slots and can be expanded to a maximum of 1 TB. This ceiling determines whether the blade can accommodate future workload growth without a platform change. Verify your application memory footprint against the 1 TB limit before deployment.

Questions about this item
Should I select the 384 GB DDR4 configuration or the 1 TB maximum capacity for my workload?
The unit ships with 384 GB DDR4 installed across its memory slots. The platform supports up to 1 TB total, so you can add further modules later if your application demands more capacity.
What does the 2.4 GHz Xeon Gold 5115 clock speed deliver in this dual-socket blade?
Two Xeon Gold 5115 processors each run at 2.4 GHz with 10 cores, providing 20 cores total for parallel workloads such as virtualisation or database tasks.
How does the SAS interface and PERC H330 controller limit storage performance?
The two 1.8 TB SAS drives connect through the PERC H330 RAID controller, which manages RAID levels and caps throughput to the SAS bus speed of the installed drives.
