Dense 1U Dual-Socket Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data centre computing. It ships new with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz, each providing eight cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. Eight 400 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache deliver high-speed storage in the eight 2.5-inch drive bays.

Suited For Dense Virtualisation Not For Maximum

This server suits organisations that need a compact dual-socket platform for virtualisation, cloud workloads or high-performance databases. The 24 DIMM slots support up to 3 TB of memory, allowing significant expansion beyond the installed 256 GB. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports provides flexible connectivity. Buyers who require more than two physical processors should consider alternative form factors, as this chassis supports a maximum of two CPUs.

PERC H730P RAID Controller Decides Storage Fit

The installed Dell PERC H730P controller manages the eight 400 GB SATA SSDs with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Its 2 GB cache and battery backup protect data during power loss. The controller operates at 12 Gb/s over SAS and SATA interfaces. If your workload demands a different RAID feature set or non-SATA media, the H730P specification is the primary factor to verify before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 8-core Gold 6134 or a different CPU for this R640?

The server comes with two Gold 6134 processors at 3.2 GHz, eight cores each, and the board supports a maximum of two CPUs, so this configuration already reaches the socket limit.

What does the 3.2 GHz base clock mean once the R640 is under load?

Each Gold 6134 can boost to 3.7 GHz on active cores, giving higher single-thread speed for database or virtualization workloads while the base clock sustains all-core throughput.

What does the PERC H730P 12Gb/s controller cap in practice?

The H730P provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity with 2 GB cache and battery backup, enabling RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through for the eight installed 400 GB SSDs.
