Dual-socket Xeon Gold 6152 server
The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount system built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6152 processors. Each CPU delivers 22 cores at 2.10 GHz, giving a total of 44 cores for multi-threaded workloads. The platform targets businesses running virtualization, databases, file storage or application hosting. It ships with a front bezel and an H740P storage controller installed.
H740P controller and empty drive bays
The integrated H740P RAID controller manages the eight 2.5-inch front bays, but no drives are included. This lets you populate the chassis with the exact mix of SSDs or HDDs your workload demands. The bezel completes the rack-ready appearance and protects the drive carriers. No operating system is pre-installed, so you can deploy your preferred hypervisor or OS.
128 GB DDR4 with 3 TB ceiling
The system arrives with 128 GB of DDR4 memory fitted, enough for dozens of virtual machines or memory-intensive databases. The motherboard supports up to 3 TB of DDR4 when fully populated, providing headroom for future growth. Graphics output is handled by the integrated GPU, which covers basic console and remote-management needs but is not suited for compute acceleration.

Questions about this item
When will the 128 GB DDR4 memory need to be expanded and what is the maximum this R640 supports?
The system ships with 128 GB DDR4 and can scale to 3 TB using the available DIMM slots.
Which component hits its limit first during sustained heavy workloads on the dual Xeon Gold 6152 CPUs?
The 44 total cores at 2.10 GHz set the compute ceiling before memory bandwidth or storage I/O become bottlenecks.
How much heat and fan noise should I expect from this rack server when it runs all day under load?
The 1 U chassis uses high-speed fans that ramp up under full CPU load, producing noticeable airflow noise in a quiet room.
