Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data center computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 256GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32GB modules. Eight 400GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H730P controller provide the primary storage array.

Suited for scale-out workloads.

This configuration suits environments that need high core density in a single rack unit with redundant 750W power supplies. It supports up to two processors and 24 memory slots for future expansion. Buyers who require more than two installed CPUs or more than 3TB of total memory capacity should consider a different platform. The quad-port network daughter card delivers two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ connections.

16 cores per processor at 2.1GHz base clock

Each Xeon Gold 6130 provides 16 cores at a 2.1GHz base frequency with a 3.7GHz turbo maximum. This core count and clock speed determine the parallel throughput available for virtualisation, database or compute tasks. The LGA 3647 socket and Intel C620 chipset define the processor compatibility ceiling for this chassis.

Questions about this item

How do I install the PERC H730P controller and what step is often missed?

Seat the H730P in the dedicated internal slot, connect the SAS cables to the 8-bay backplane, then run the controller BIOS to create virtual disks before the OS sees any storage.

Which components will need replacement first under continuous operation?

The two 750 W platinum power supplies and the H730P battery-backed cache are the field-replaceable units rated for hot-swap service.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs run at 3.7 GHz turbo?

The 1U chassis airflow ceiling caps sustained all-core turbo; the system will throttle to base 2.1 GHz once inlet temperature reaches the platform limit.
