Half-height blade server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade built for virtualisation, private cloud and high-performance computing workloads. It fits into PowerEdge MX or M1000e chassis and ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6230 processors, each running 20 cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency. Installed memory totals 128 GB across eight 16 GB DDR4 registered ECC modules, and the system can scale to 1.5 TB when all sixteen slots are populated.

Sustained load behaviour with dual 20-core CPUs

Under continuous demand the dual Xeon Gold 6230 CPUs maintain their 2.1 GHz base clock across all 40 threads, while the integrated Dell PERC S140 controller handles RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 on SATA or NVMe drives installed in the two 2.5-inch caddies. The Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 Gb network daughter card provides consistent throughput for east-west traffic inside the chassis, and iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote monitoring and firmware updates without interrupting running workloads.

Verify chassis compatibility and drive selection

Confirm that an available half-height slot exists in your PowerEdge MX or M1000e enclosure and that the chassis power budget can support two 20-core processors at full utilisation. Choose 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives — or NVMe drives supported by the S140 controller — to populate the supplied caddies, and ensure your networking fabric can terminate the dual 10 Gb ports on the Broadcom daughter card. No operating system or front bezel is included.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the dual Xeon Gold 6230 20-core setup produce when running all day?

The two Gold 6230 processors each have a base frequency of 2.10 GHz and can turbo to 3.9 GHz, so sustained full-load power draw will be significant and requires the MX or M1000e chassis cooling system to handle it.

What chassis and interconnects must I already own for this M640 blade to operate?

The blade fits Dell PowerEdge MX and M1000e enclosures and uses the Broadcom 57810S-K 10Gb dual-port daughter card for fabric connectivity.

Will the PERC S140 controller work with my existing 2.5-inch SAS drives?

Yes, the S140 supports SAS and SATA drives and the server includes two 2.5-inch caddies, so your current SAS SSDs or HDDs can be installed directly.
