Dense 1U Dual-Socket Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data centre computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots. A PERC H730P controller, dual 10 Gb SFP+ networking, and redundant 750 W power supplies complete the configuration.

Suited For High-Core Virtualisation

This server suits environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit. Virtualisation hosts, database clusters, and compute-heavy workloads benefit from the 32 total cores and 768 GB RAM. Buyers who need more than two processors, require storage interfaces beyond SAS or SATA, or operate with single-socket licensing constraints should evaluate alternative platforms.

24 DIMM Slots Define Memory Ceiling

The 24 memory slots set the practical upgrade limit for this chassis. With 768 GB installed as 24 × 32 GB modules, every slot is populated at DDR4 2666 MHz. Further expansion requires replacing existing DIMMs rather than adding to empty slots. The maximum supported capacity is 3 TB when higher-density modules are used.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 750 W supplies draw when the 2.1 GHz Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs run at full load all day?

Each supply is rated at 750 W with platinum efficiency; actual draw depends on workload but the redundant pair shares the load to keep the system running continuously.

Which cables and drive carriers must I already have to populate the eight 2.5-inch SAS bays beyond the two 300 GB drives included?

The chassis accepts standard 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives; additional drives and matching hot-swap carriers are required for the remaining six bays.

Will the PERC H730P controller recognise older 6 Gb/s SAS drives I might keep from a previous server?

The H730P supports 12 Gb/s SAS and is backward compatible with 6 Gb/s SAS drives, so existing drives will be detected and can be used in RAID arrays.
