Dell PowerEdge R640 10-bay rack server
This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage, backups, and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors deliver 40 total cores at 2.40GHz on LGA3647 sockets. The system includes 128GB of DDR4 memory and a PERC H730P storage controller.
Suited for dense virtualization
The 10-bay 2.5-inch chassis supports up to ten 600GB 10K SAS hard drives, providing capacity for operating systems, applications, virtual machines, and business data. Integrated GPU output handles basic management display needs. Buyers who require dedicated GPU compute, more than two processor sockets, or memory capacity beyond 3TB should evaluate alternative platforms that provide those capabilities.
10-bay 2.5-inch drive configuration
The defining specification is the ten 2.5-inch drive bays paired with the H730P RAID controller, which determines how many SAS drives can be installed and how they are managed. This layout fixes the maximum raw storage at 600GB per bay and the RAID levels available to the controller. Confirm the bay count and controller match your storage design before purchase.

Questions about this item
What rack space and power connections does the R640 need to operate?
The R640 is a 1U rackmount server that fits a standard rack; it requires suitable power cables for the dual power supplies and network cables for the Ethernet ports.
Can the existing 600 GB SAS drives stay in place if I add more storage later?
The server has ten 2.5-inch bays and the H730P controller supports SAS drives, so additional compatible SAS drives can be installed in any free bay.
How do I confirm the 40 cores and 128 GB DDR4 are recognised after power-on?
During POST the system will display two Xeon Gold 6148 processors totalling 40 cores and 128 GB DDR4 memory; the iDRAC interface also shows the same inventory.
