Dense 1U compute platform

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a dual-socket 1U rack server built for scale-out data center workloads. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors deliver 32 cores at 2.1 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo. 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory occupies eight of 24 slots. The PERC H730P controller manages eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60.

Virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This configuration suits teams running hypervisor clusters, in-memory databases or high-throughput transactional workloads that benefit from high core count and large memory capacity. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise simplify fleet management. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5 inch bays, or GPU acceleration should evaluate larger chassis options.

Storage controller and drive interface

The PERC H730P 2 GB controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with battery-backed cache for the installed 2.4 TB SAS drives. This determines which drive types and RAID levels are supported without additional hardware.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.1 GHz 16-core Xeon Gold 6130 processors work with my existing DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory modules?

Yes, the server uses DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, so compatible modules you already own can be installed alongside the 256 GB (8 × 32 GB) already fitted.

How can I verify the PERC H730P controller is managing all eight 2.4 TB SAS drives correctly after installation?

Check the controller BIOS during boot or use the iDRAC 9 Enterprise interface to confirm the virtual disks show the expected RAID level and all eight physical drives report optimal status.

Does the package include SFP+ transceivers for the X520 10 GbE ports, or must I buy them separately?

The box contains the server with bezel, ready rails, two 750 W power supplies and the quad-port network daughter card; SFP+ transceivers for the 10 GbE links are not included and must be purchased separately.
