DELL PowerEdge M640 Blade Server 2x Xeon Silver 4116 2.1GHz 256GB DDR4 2x 900GB SAS

Dell PowerEdge M640 blade server

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a two-socket blade server that delivers dense compute in a half-height form factor. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors at 2.1 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise provides full remote management. This unit is designed for virtualization and database workloads in converged infrastructure.

Suited for virtualization hosts needing dual CPUs

IT teams that run memory-intensive virtual machines or mid-size databases benefit from the 256 GB DDR4 capacity and twelve cores per processor. The PERC H330 controller manages the two 900 GB SAS drives in RAID configurations. Buyers who need more than two internal drive bays should evaluate alternative platforms. Workloads requiring GPU acceleration are not supported by the integrated graphics.

Dual Xeon Silver 4116 processors with 256 GB DDR4

The pair of Xeon Silver 4116 CPUs provides twenty-four cores total at 2.1 GHz with 16.5 MB cache each. Memory slots support DDR4 up to a maximum of 1 TB if future expansion is required. The installed 256 GB uses ECC registered modules for data integrity. This processor and memory combination determines whether the server matches the performance envelope of the target workload.
