Dual-socket 1U compute density

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out workloads. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors at 2.6 GHz with 16 cores each provide high core count in a compact form factor. 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory supports demanding virtualization and database tasks.

Suited for virtualization clusters.

This configuration fits buyers who need maximum CPU cores and storage bays in a single rack unit. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays and dual 10 Gb SFP+ ports serve storage-intensive and network-heavy applications. Buyers requiring GPU acceleration or more than two processor sockets should evaluate alternative platforms.

Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives define storage capacity

The PERC H730P controller manages eight enterprise 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. This drive count and speed set the usable capacity and IOPS ceiling for the system. Confirm the total raw storage meets the dataset size before deployment.

Questions about this item

Do I need to supply my own SFP+ modules for the 10Gb ports on the X520/I350 daughter card?

Yes, the X520/I350 card provides two 10Gb SFP+ ports that require compatible SFP+ transceivers and cables, which are not included with the server.

Can the PERC H730P controller also manage SATA SSDs if I add them later alongside the installed SAS drives?

The H730P supports both 12Gb/s SAS and SATA devices, so SATA SSDs can be added to the remaining drive bays and managed by the same controller.

How can I confirm the iDRAC9 Enterprise licence is active after the server is racked and powered on?

Connect to the iDRAC IP address, log in, and the dashboard will display the Enterprise licence status along with full remote-management features such as virtual console and remote firmware update.
