2U 4-bay 2× Xeon Gold 5218 768GB
This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors at 2.3GHz and 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Four 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H740P RAID controller handle internal storage. Dual 750W supplies and an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence are included.
Suited for dense virtualisation or database nodes
Organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a 2U form factor will benefit from the 16 cores per processor and 768GB RAM. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, more than four drive bays, or 10GbE beyond the installed 562T adapter should consider other platforms.
Four 3.5-inch SATA bays with PERC H740P
The chassis provides exactly four hot-plug 3.5-inch bays connected to the PERC H740P controller. No drives are installed, so the buyer must supply compatible SATA HDDs or SSDs. The RAID controller and bay count are the decisive constraints for storage planning.

Questions about this item
What rack depth and rail kit are required for the 36-inch deep R640?
The server is 36 inches deep and fits a standard rack; a compatible rail kit is available on request for secure mounting.
What is the correct order for installing the two Xeon Gold 5218 CPUs and the 768GB DDR4 memory?
Both CPUs are already installed; populate the DDR4 DIMM slots evenly across the two processors following the memory channel guide for best performance.
Which components will need replacement after several years of continuous operation?
The two 750W power supplies and the system fans are the primary field-replaceable units that typically require replacement over time.
