Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server built around two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors, each delivering 24 cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4-2666 registered ECC memory across eight modules and includes a PERC H730P 2 GB RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays, dual 750 W redundant power supplies, quad-port 1/10 GbE networking and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management complete the platform.

Suits scale-out compute and virtualisation clusters

This configuration targets workloads that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity in a dense 1U footprint, such as virtualisation hosts, database nodes and HPC clusters. The dual-socket design maxes out at two processors and 3 TB of RAM across 24 DIMM slots, so buyers who need more than two sockets or memory beyond 3 TB must look elsewhere. Systems requiring internal GPU acceleration or more than eight front-accessible 2.5-inch bays also fall outside this chassis.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The installed Dell PERC H730P provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity and a 2 GB battery-backed cache, enabling hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. This single component determines the storage performance, redundancy options and drive compatibility for the eight 2.5-inch bays, making it the decisive specification when matching the server to a storage workload.

Questions about this item

Will the two Xeon 8160 CPUs and 128GB DDR4 work with my existing DDR4 2666MHz ECC modules?

The server runs 128GB as eight 16GB DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC DIMMs across 24 slots; any added DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC modules must match that specification to operate correctly.

How can I verify the PERC H730P controller and X520/I350 network card are functioning after installation?

During POST the H730P reports its 2GB cache and RAID firmware version, while iDRAC9 Enterprise shows both 10Gb SFP+ and 1GbE ports linked; the controller BIOS also lists detected drives and array status.

Which items ship in the box and what must I source separately?

Included are the 1U chassis, 2x Xeon 8160, 128GB DDR4, H730P, 8x 2.5" trays, X520/I350 quad-port card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, 2x 750W PSUs, bezel and rails; no 2.5" SAS/SATA drives are supplied.
