Dense virtualisation server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 packs 40 cores across two Xeon Gold 6148 processors running at 2.40GHz into a 1U rack chassis. It targets IT teams that run hypervisors, database clusters or heavy application workloads where core count and memory capacity matter more than GPU acceleration.

Rack-ready with flexible storage

Front-panel LEDs show power, Ethernet and USB status at a glance. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays and the included H740P controller let you populate SSDs or HDDs in any RAID layout without proprietary trays. The iDRAC Enterprise module gives full out-of-band control over IP, while the bezel completes a tidy rack appearance.

Replaces older dual-socket boxes

Organisations moving from earlier two-socket servers gain a direct core-count jump to 40 threads and a 512GB DDR4 ceiling that scales to 3TB. The upgrade makes sense when licence costs are tied to socket count and you need more virtual machines per host without adding rack units.
