Dense 1U Dual-Socket Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors running at 2.6 GHz with 16 cores each and 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots.

Suited For Compute-Dense Racks.

This platform suits operators who need maximum CPU throughput in a single rack unit with redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and integrated 10 GbE plus 1 GbE networking. Buyers who need more than eight 2.5‑inch drive bays, additional PCIe expansion slots or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate other form factors.

Eight 2.4 TB SAS Drives On H730P Controller

The storage subsystem provides eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730P 2 GB controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and pass-through modes, delivering high IOPS for database and virtualisation workloads.

Questions about this item

What does the 12Gb/s SAS controller cap the drive link speed at?

The PERC H730P controller runs the eight 2.4TB SAS drives at up to 12Gb/s per lane.

What physical mounting hardware comes with the 1U chassis?

Ready rails and a front bezel are included for installation in a standard rack enclosure.

How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Two Xeon Gold 6142 processors are pre-installed in the LGA 3647 sockets; the four 16GB DDR4 modules must be seated in the correct slots per the memory population guide.
