Rack Server with Dual Xeon Silver 4215R
The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4215R processors running at 3.2 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H740P RAID controller. The 4LFF chassis supports up to four 3.5-inch SATA drives, though no drives are installed. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence, and dual 750 W power supplies provide redundancy.
Suited for Virtualisation Hosts and Database Nodes
This configuration fits organisations that need dense compute and flexible SATA storage in a single rack unit. The dual 8-core CPUs and large memory ceiling support consolidation workloads, while the 10 GbE 562T adapter handles high-throughput networking. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, large local flash capacity or higher single-thread frequencies should evaluate alternative platforms because the chassis offers only integrated graphics and SATA-connected bays.
PERC H740P RAID Controller Determines Storage Layout
The installed PERC H740P controller manages RAID across the four 3.5-inch bays and dictates which drive types and array levels are available. Confirm that its feature set matches your redundancy and performance requirements before purchase, as the server ships without drives and the controller cannot be swapped for a different model without reconfiguration.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 4LFF chassis or a different drive-bay layout?
The 4LFF chassis supports up to four 3.5-inch drives and ships without any drives installed, so you can add the exact capacity you need.
What does the 3.2 GHz clock speed mean for actual workloads?
Each Xeon Silver 4215R runs at 3.2 GHz with eight cores, giving sixteen cores total for multi-threaded applications such as virtualization or databases.
How does the PERC H740P controller limit the SATA drives I can use?
The PERC H740P manages the SATA interface and provides hardware RAID for the installed drives, capping throughput at the SATA link speed.
