DELL PowerEdge R640 4LFF 2x Xeon Silver 4116 768GB DDR4 No Drive rack server

Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF Server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1GHz and 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It includes a PERC H740P RAID controller and a 10GbE 2-port 562T network adapter. The chassis supports up to four 3.5-inch SATA drive bays and ships without installed drives. Remote management is provided by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Ideal for virtualisation and database workloads

The dual 12-core CPUs and large memory capacity suit virtualisation hosts, database servers and compute-intensive applications that need many threads and RAM. The four 3.5-inch bays limit internal storage density, so buyers who need more than four drives should consider a different chassis. The integrated graphics and lack of GPU slots make it unsuitable for workloads requiring GPU acceleration.

Four 3.5-inch SATA drive bays

The 4LFF chassis provides exactly four hot-plug 3.5-inch bays connected to the PERC H740P controller via SATA. This bay count is the deciding factor for storage capacity; if your deployment requires more than four drives you will need a server with a larger drive bay count.
