Dense 1U Dual-Socket Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730P storage controller with 2 GB cache.

Virtualisation Hosts and Scale-Out Clusters

This configuration suits environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit. The dual 10 GbE SFP+ ports and quad 1 GbE interfaces support demanding network workloads. Buyers who require more than two processor sockets or additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5-inch slots should evaluate alternative platforms.

768 GB DDR4 Registered ECC Memory

The installed 768 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory occupies all 24 DIMM slots and determines the immediate capacity for virtual machines or in-memory databases. The platform supports up to 3 TB total when higher-capacity modules are used. Verify that your workload fits within this memory footprint before deployment.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?

The server includes two Xeon Gold 6142 processors, 768GB DDR4 in all 24 slots, two 400GB SATA SSDs, a PERC H730P controller with battery, quad-port X520/I350 networking, iDRAC9 Enterprise, dual 750W PSUs, rails and bezel. Add drives for the remaining six 2.5" bays if needed.

Which memory configuration should I choose for this 768GB setup?

The 768GB ships as 24x 32GB DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC modules, filling every slot. To expand toward the 3TB maximum you must replace modules with higher-capacity DDR4 RDIMMs or LRDIMMs; there are no empty slots.

What does the 3.7GHz turbo figure mean once the server is running workloads?

Each 16-core Xeon Gold 6142 can boost from its 2.6GHz base to 3.7GHz when thermal headroom allows, giving short bursts of higher single-thread speed before returning to sustained all-core frequencies.
