Dual Xeon 24-Core Blade Server

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server designed for the PowerEdge MX and M1000e chassis. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8260 processors, each running at 2.40 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 32 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four modules and two 1.92 TB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC S140 controller. iDRAC9 Enterprise provides remote management capabilities.

Suits dense virtualisation and HPC clusters

This configuration fits organisations that need maximum compute density within a supported MX or M1000e enclosure. The dual 24-core CPUs and 10 Gb dual-port networking handle heavy virtualisation, private cloud and high-performance computing workloads. Buyers who need more than 32 GB of memory or additional drive bays should look at a different configuration. Systems requiring a full-height form factor or a standalone rackmount server are not compatible with this blade format.

Two-socket LGA 3647 with 24 cores per CPU

The server board accepts up to two processors in LGA 3647 sockets and this unit already populates both with 24-core Xeon Platinum 8260 chips. Memory capacity can scale to 2 TB using the 16 available DDR4 slots. Storage uses SATA or SAS interfaces through the integrated S140 controller with RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 support. The Broadcom 57810S-K daughter card delivers dual-port 10 Gb connectivity. No operating system is included.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power should I plan for when both Xeon Platinum 8260 CPUs run at 2.4 GHz with 3.9 GHz Turbo all day?

Each Xeon Platinum 8260 runs at 2.4 GHz base and can boost to 3.9 GHz; the blade draws power through the MX or M1000e chassis supply, so total heat output depends on the chassis configuration and workload.

What chassis and networking parts must I already have to install this half-height blade?

The M640 fits a PowerEdge MX or M1000e enclosure and uses the installed Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 Gb daughter card for network connectivity.

Can I keep my existing DDR4 modules and SATA SSDs when I add this blade to a current MX chassis?

The blade accepts DDR4 registered ECC memory up to 2 TB across 16 slots and its PERC S140 controller supports SATA or SAS drives, so compatible modules and drives can be reused.
