Dell PowerEdge R640 server
The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built around two Xeon Platinum 8268 processors running at 2.9 GHz with 24 cores each. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H740P RAID controller. The chassis provides four 3.5-inch drive bays and includes a 10 GbE two-port 562T adapter. Dual 750 W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are fitted.
Suits virtualisation and database clusters
This configuration suits workloads that demand high core counts and large memory footprints such as virtualisation hosts, in-memory databases or high-performance computing nodes. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than four 3.5-inch drive bays should look at a different platform. The integrated graphics and lack of installed storage also mean it is not a turnkey file server.
512 GB DDR4 with room to 7.68 TB
The installed 512 GB of DDR4 memory handles large virtual-machine fleets and sizeable database buffers comfortably. The board supports up to 7.68 TB of DDR4 for future growth. Four SATA drive bays provide capacity headroom for mechanical arrays, while the PERC H740P controller manages RAID levels without consuming CPU cycles.

Questions about this item
Does the server include the drive caddies or trays required for the four 3.5-inch SATA bays?
The chassis supports four 3.5-inch SATA drive bays and the PERC H740P controller manages them, but the listing states hard drives are not installed and does not confirm whether caddies are included.
Will my existing DDR4 ECC registered modules work alongside the 512GB already installed?
The system uses DDR4 ECC registered memory and supports up to 7.68TB total capacity, so compatible DDR4 ECC registered modules can be added to the available slots.
How can I verify the iDRAC9 Enterprise licence is active after the firmware update?
Log into the iDRAC9 web interface using the management port; the dashboard will display the Enterprise licence status and confirm the latest firmware version applied before shipment.
