Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, a PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache, and eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives. Quad-port networking provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, while iDRAC9 Enterprise and redundant 750 W platinum power supplies complete the package.

Scale-out compute, not GPU or massive memory

This configuration suits dense scale-out workloads such as virtualization clusters, database nodes, or high-performance computing where dual-socket throughput and fast local SAS storage matter. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than 64 GB of memory pre-installed, or storage interfaces beyond SAS and SATA should evaluate alternative platforms. The 1U form factor also limits internal expansion to the provided eight 2.5-inch bays and the installed daughter card.

Eight 2.4 TB SAS drives on H730P

The single specification that decides fit is the storage subsystem: eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives behind a PERC H730P controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. If the workload demands this exact capacity, drive speed, and RAID flexibility within a 1U chassis, the R640 matches; otherwise, a different drive count or interface will be required.

Questions about this item

How often will the PERC H730P controller's battery need replacement?

The PERC H730P includes a 2GB cache battery that typically lasts three to five years before requiring replacement.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 6130 processors run at 3.7 GHz continuously?

The 1U chassis and dual 750 W platinum power supplies set the thermal ceiling before the CPUs reach their maximum turbo frequency.

How loud are the fans when the server operates 24/7 under full load?

The 1U form factor uses high-RPM fans that produce noticeable datacentre-level noise during sustained full-load operation.
