Dual-socket 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules. A PERC H730P 2 GB controller manages eight 600 GB 10 K SAS drives in the front 2.5 inch bays.

Virtualisation and database hosts

This configuration suits organisations running virtualisation clusters, database workloads or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from dual-socket throughput and hardware RAID. The integrated X520/I350 quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, GPU compute capacity, or storage interfaces beyond SAS and SATA should evaluate other platforms.

24 DDR4 slots maximum

The server offers 24 DDR4 DIMM slots with a maximum supported capacity of 3 TB, so the installed 128 GB leaves substantial headroom for future memory expansion. The LGA 3647 sockets support up to two processors, both of which are already populated. The 750 W redundant platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise remote management complete the core specification that determines whether this chassis fits the deployment.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the eight 600 GB SAS drives and other capacity options?

This unit ships with eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives installed in the 2.5-inch bays; no other drive capacities are included.

What does the 2.1 GHz Xeon Silver 4116 clock mean once the server is running workloads?

Each of the two 12-core processors runs at 2.1 GHz base and can reach 3.0 GHz turbo under load, giving 24 total cores for parallel tasks.

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

The H730P handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with its 2 GB cache and connects the eight SAS drives at up to 12 Gb/s per lane.
