1U Rack Server for Virtualisation

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualisation, databases and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 48 cores at 2.1 GHz. 128 GB of DDR4 memory is installed and the system supports up to 3 TB. An integrated GPU handles basic display output.

Suited to Multi-VM Environments, Not GPU Compute

This configuration suits teams running multiple virtual machines, file storage or backup services that benefit from high core counts and large memory headroom. The H730P controller simplifies storage management across ten drive bays. Buyers needing dedicated graphics acceleration or support for newer memory generations should look at alternative platforms.

Ten 2.5-Inch Bays with 1 TB SATA SSDs

Ten 2.5-inch bays are populated with 1 TB SATA SSDs, providing 10 TB of raw capacity for operating systems, applications and virtual machine images. The H730P RAID controller manages redundancy and performance. Memory headroom reaches 3 TB for future expansion. Storage expansion beyond the ten bays requires external enclosures or a different chassis.

Questions about this item

What rack mounting hardware is required to install the 640 in a standard cabinet?

The 640 is a rackmount server system; you will need compatible rack rails and a 2.5-inch drive bay layout to fit the 10 installed SATA SSDs.

Can the H730P controller manage the existing 10 1TB SATA SSDs together with older mechanical drives?

The H730P storage controller supports the 10 1TB SATA SSDs; adding older drives is possible if they match the 2.5-inch bay form factor and SATA interface.

How do I verify the dual Platinum 8160 CPUs are running all 48 cores at 2.10GHz after setup?

Check the system BIOS or operating system CPU topology — it should show 2 processors, 8 cores each, totalling 48 cores at 2.10GHz.
