Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight modules. Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives and a PERC H730P hardware RAID controller provide high-performance internal storage.

Suited for virtualisation and database clusters

This configuration targets environments that need high core counts and hardware RAID in a single rack unit. The dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise simplify remote management and uptime. Buyers who require software-defined storage without a hardware RAID layer, or who need more than 24 DIMM slots for larger memory footprints, should consider other platforms.

16 cores per processor at 2.1 GHz

Each of the two installed CPUs delivers 16 cores at a 2.1 GHz base frequency with a 3.7 GHz turbo boost. This core density determines whether the server can handle the intended parallel workloads within the 1U form factor.

Questions about this item

How do I replace a failed 1.2TB SAS drive in the 8-bay front panel?

The server holds eight 2.5-inch SAS drives in hot-swap bays; pull the carrier, swap the 1.2TB 10K drive and the PERC H730P will rebuild the RAID array automatically.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs run at 3.7GHz turbo continuously?

The 1U chassis relies on high-speed internal fans to cool two 16-core processors and 128GB DDR4; sustained turbo loads will hit the fan-curve ceiling before the 750W platinum PSUs reach their thermal envelope.

How loud are the fans when the R640 runs 24/7 with dual 750W PSUs loaded?

Dual 750W platinum supplies and dense 1U airflow mean the fans run at high RPM under constant load, producing datacentre-grade noise levels unsuitable for office or quiet-room placement.
