DELL PowerEdge R640 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 Platinum 8160 processors, each running at 2.1GHz with 24 cores. The system includes 768GB of DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots. A PERC H730P 2GB controller manages storage and RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Suits high-density virtualisation

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised workloads, in-memory databases or high-performance computing clusters that need maximum core count and memory capacity in a single rack unit. The dual 10Gb SFP+ and dual 1GbE ports support demanding network throughput. Buyers who need more than two processors or who require GPU acceleration should evaluate alternative platforms. Those needing additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5-inch slots will also need a different chassis.

PERC H730P controller with 2GB cache and battery

The installed Dell PERC H730P 2GB 12Gb/s SAS/SATA storage controller with battery-backed cache determines the RAID capabilities and drive performance ceiling. It supports SATA and SAS drives in multiple RAID modes including pass-through. The two included 800GB SATA SSDs connect through this controller. Verify that your drive protocol and RAID requirements match this controller before purchase.

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 to maintain write-back caching during power loss.

What limit appears first when both Xeon 8160 CPUs run at 3.7GHz turbo continuously?

Sustained 3.7GHz turbo on both 24-core processors will trigger thermal or power throttling before memory or storage bandwidth saturates.

How loud and hot does the 1U chassis get with dual 750W PSUs under full load?

Dual 750W Platinum PSUs and high-speed fans keep the 1U chassis within thermal limits, but fan noise rises noticeably during continuous all-core workloads.
