Built for virtualization and data workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, backups and application hosting. It targets IT departments and service providers needing dense compute in a standard rack footprint. Buyers who require GPU-accelerated workloads or integrated operating system licences should look elsewhere.

Dual Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 48 cores

Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs run at 2.10GHz with 24 cores each, totalling 48 cores for parallel processing. The LGA3647 socket platform supports up to two processors, both already installed. Memory uses DDR4 with 512GB fitted and a 3TB maximum capacity. Storage drives are not included; the chassis provides eight 2.5-inch bays.

H730P controller and rails simplify rack deployment

The server ships with an H730P storage controller, rack rails and front bezel for a more complete rack-ready configuration. Technicians configure the BIOS, controllers and arrays before dispatch. Missing drives mean you must source compatible 2.5-inch media separately. Integrated graphics handle basic display output only.

Questions about this item

What does the 48-core figure mean once the server is running?

Two Xeon Platinum 8160 processors each provide 24 cores, giving 48 cores total for parallel workloads.

What interface does the H730P controller use and what does that limit?

The H730P controls the eight 2.5-inch front bays, so drive choice is limited to that form factor.

What does the R640 need to fit in a standard rack?

The 1U rackmount chassis includes rails and a front bezel for direct installation.
