PowerEdge M640 blade server

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for dense data-centre deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6230 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency and 20 cores. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory are installed across 16 slots, supporting up to 1.5 TB total capacity.

Sustained multi-core throughput

Dual 20-core CPUs provide 40 threads for continuous virtualization, private cloud or high-performance computing workloads. The 12 Gb/s PERC H330 controller manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 across two 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drive bays. Dual 10 Gb Ethernet ports on the Broadcom 57810S-K daughter card maintain bandwidth during prolonged traffic spikes.

Chassis integration and remote management

The blade fits PowerEdge MX and M1000e enclosures without front bezel or ready rails. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables full out-of-band control, firmware updates and hardware monitoring from any location. Matrox G200 graphics with 8 MB video memory supply basic console output. Buyers needing internal NVMe storage or more than two drive bays should consider other form factors.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power do the two Xeon Gold 6230 20-core CPUs generate when running all day?

Each Xeon Gold 6230 is a 20-core processor with a 2.1 GHz base speed and 3.9 GHz turbo. With two installed, the blade draws its maximum power and cooling from the M1000e or MX chassis fans and power supplies.

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

The half-height M640 blade requires a Dell PowerEdge M1000e or MX series chassis. It uses the installed Broadcom 57810S-K 10Gb dual-port network daughter card for fabric connectivity.

Can I keep using my existing DDR4 RDIMMs and 2.5" SAS or SATA drives with this server?

Yes. The blade has 16 DDR4 slots supporting registered ECC modules up to 1.5 TB total. It includes two 2.5" caddies for SAS or SATA drives managed by the PERC H330 controller.
