Dual-socket 1U server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R640 packs two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each with 16 cores at 2.1 GHz, into a single rack unit. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives on a PERC H730P controller. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise management complete the platform.

Suited to virtualisation and database clusters

This configuration targets workloads that benefit from 32 total cores, large memory capacity and high-throughput SAS storage. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links for flexible connectivity. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The system arrives with 16× 32 GB DDR4 2666 MHz modules, filling 16 of the 24 available slots and leaving room to grow toward the 3 TB maximum. Memory type and speed are fixed to DDR4; other generations are not compatible.

Questions about this item

What rack depth and rail kit does the 1U R640 require?

The server is a 1U rack-mount chassis and ships with Dell Ready Rails for square-hole or threaded cabinets.

How do I install the 16 × 32 GB DDR4 modules, and what slot order avoids a POST error?

Populate all 24 slots in matched pairs per CPU, following the silkscreened channel sequence; the common mistake is leaving a channel unbalanced.

When will the PERC H730P RAID battery need replacement, and how is it swapped?

The 2 GB cache battery typically lasts three to five years; it is hot-swappable behind the controller bracket — remove the bracket, unplug the old pack, insert the new one, and reseat the bracket.
