Dense 1U Dual-Socket Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data centre computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors running at 2.60 GHz, each providing 16 cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, a PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller, and two 800 GB SATA SSDs in the eight 2.5-inch drive bays.

Suited For And Not Suited For

This server suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance applications that benefit from 32 total cores and large memory capacity. The redundant 750 W power supplies, iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management and quad-port 1 GbE plus 10 Gb SFP+ networking support continuous operation. Buyers who need more than eight drive bays, GPU acceleration or single-thread optimisation should evaluate alternative platforms.

Storage Controller Decides Fit

The PERC H730P controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, backed by a battery. If your deployment requires this specific RAID feature set and SAS/SATA drive support, the controller matches the requirement; if a different protocol or RAID level is needed, the server will not fit.
