Dense 1U dual-socket server

The PowerEdge R640 packs two Xeon Gold 6130 processors into a single rack unit, delivering 32 cores at 2.1 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo. It targets organisations that need maximum compute density for virtualisation, database or high-performance workloads in space-constrained data centres.

PERC H730P with battery-backed cache

The integrated H730P controller adds 2 GB of battery-backed cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through. This enables write-back acceleration and data protection for the eight installed 600 GB 10K SAS drives without a separate cache module.

512 GB DDR4 across 24 slots

The system ships with 512 GB of registered ECC DDR4 in 16 modules, leaving eight slots free for expansion up to the 3 TB platform limit. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays are fully populated, so additional internal storage requires external enclosures or a chassis change.

Questions about this item

How often will the PERC H730P RAID controller battery need replacement?

The PERC H730P includes a 2GB cache battery that typically lasts three to five years; monitor iDRAC9 Enterprise alerts for end-of-life warnings and swap the battery module during a scheduled maintenance window.

Which component hits its limit first when all sixteen cores run at 3.7GHz turbo continuously?

The dual 750W Platinum power supplies set the ceiling; sustained turbo across both Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs can draw close to the 750W rating, so power headroom is the first constraint.

What fan noise and heat output should I expect with the 512GB DDR4 configuration running 24/7?

Dual 750W Platinum PSUs and 1U airflow design push exhaust temperatures above 40°C at the rear; fan speed ramps to high RPM under load, producing noticeable datacentre-grade noise levels.
