Dell PowerEdge R640 8-bay SFF server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 48 cores running at 2.1 GHz, while 256 GB of DDR4 memory supports multiple services and virtual machines. Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives provide capacity for operating systems, applications and backups. The H730P storage controller simplifies array setup and ongoing management.

Virtualization and database teams needing dense

The twin Platinum 8160 CPUs and large DDR4 allocation suit organisations running heavy virtualisation clusters or memory-intensive databases. Eight 2.5-inch bays filled with 1.2 TB SAS disks limit raw capacity, so buyers who need more storage space or additional drive bays should consider a different platform. Workloads that require GPU acceleration or more than two processor sockets are also outside this system's design.

256 GB DDR4 installed memory

The server ships with 256 GB of DDR4 installed and supports a maximum of 3 TB across its memory slots. This single figure determines whether the platform can hold your working set or whether you must budget for additional modules before deployment.
