Dense 1U dual-socket server

The PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data center computing. It carries two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors at 2.1GHz with 24 cores each. The system includes 256GB of DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32GB modules. Two redundant 750W platinum-efficiency power supplies are fitted.

Suited for high-density compute clusters

This server fits environments that need maximum core count and memory in a single rack unit. The eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis supports SAS and SATA drives through the H730P controller with RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60. Buyers who want more storage bays or a larger form factor should look at a different platform. The installed network daughter card provides two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ ports.

24 cores per processor socket

Each Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 delivers 24 cores at a base frequency of 2.1GHz with a 3.7GHz turbo capability. The LGA 3647 socket and Intel C620 chipset limit upgrades to a maximum of two processors. Memory capacity can scale to 3TB across 24 DDR4 slots when additional modules are added. iDRAC 9 Enterprise enables full remote management.

Questions about this item

How does the 256GB DDR4 2666MHz memory perform in a live dual-socket R640?

The system ships with eight 32GB registered ECC modules running at 2666MHz across both processors, giving 256GB total capacity and 24 slots for future expansion up to 3TB.

What RAID levels and throughput does the PERC H730P 2GB controller support with the installed SAS drives?

The H730P handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through at 12Gb/s SAS, backed by a 2GB cache and battery to protect in-flight writes during power loss.

What physical hardware is included to mount the 1U chassis in a rack?

The package includes Dell Ready Rails sliding rails and a front bezel, so the 1U server can be secured in a standard rack without additional brackets.
