Purpose-built server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 8B SFF is a 1U rackmount server designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8268 processors running at 2.90 GHz, providing 48 total cores to handle multi-threaded services. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 memory and eight new 1 TB SATA SSDs managed by an H730P controller.

Fit and alternatives

This server suits organisations that need dense compute and local storage in a single rack unit for on-premises virtualisation clusters or database nodes. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5-inch slots, or an operating system pre-installed should evaluate other configurations.

Deciding specification

The eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis populated with 1 TB SATA SSDs on an H730P controller determines whether the storage capacity and performance profile match the intended workload.

Questions about this item

Will the two Xeon Platinum 8268 CPUs fit in my existing LGA3647 socket motherboard?

Yes, each Platinum 8268 uses the LGA3647 socket, so they are compatible with any board that supports that socket and the required power delivery.

How can I verify the H730P controller and all eight 1 TB SSDs are recognised after installation?

Enter the controller BIOS during boot or use the iDRAC interface to confirm the H730P appears with all eight drives showing as healthy members of the configured array.

Does the shipment include rack rails and a power cord, or must I order them separately?

The unit comes with the server chassis, two processors, 128 GB DDR4, H730P controller and eight 1 TB SSDs; rails and power cords are not included and must be sourced separately.
