Dual-socket blade for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server that fits into PowerEdge MX and M1000e chassis. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6230 processors provide 20 cores each at 2.10 GHz with 3.9 GHz turbo. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4 registered ECC memory occupy four of the sixteen available slots.

Suits virtualization clusters; not for GPU workloads

This configuration targets virtualization, private cloud and high-performance computing where CPU density matters. The Matrox G200 graphics controller with 8 MB video memory is limited to console output. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or local display performance should look at a different platform.

PERC H330, dual 10 Gb ports and iDRAC9 Enterprise

The PERC H330 controller manages the two installed 960 GB SATA SSDs with RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 support. A Broadcom 57810S-K daughter card adds dual-port 10 Gb network connectivity. iDRAC9 Enterprise provides comprehensive remote management and automation. No operating system, front bezel or ready rails are included.

Questions about this item

What chassis do I need to install this half-height blade server?

This blade fits the PowerEdge MX or M1000e chassis, which provide power, cooling and the backplane connections it requires.

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

Yes, the board has 16 DDR4 slots and supports up to 1.5TB, so registered ECC modules at 2666MHz can be added alongside the four 8GB sticks already installed.

How do I verify the PERC H330 controller sees both 960GB SSDs after the blade is seated?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise web console, go to Storage, and confirm the controller lists two 960GB SATA drives in a healthy RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 or 50 virtual disk.
