Dell PowerEdge R640 40-Core Virtualization Server
The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors running at 2.4GHz, delivering 40 total cores and 512GB of DDR4 memory. The chassis supports eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes an H730P storage controller, rack rails and front bezel.
40-Core Xeon Gold 6148 Processor Configuration
The dual-socket LGA3647 platform provides 40 combined cores at a base frequency of 2.4GHz, which is the decisive specification for multi-threaded virtualization and database performance. Each Gold 6148 processor contributes 24 cores, and the system supports a maximum of two processors. The installed 512GB DDR4 memory can be expanded up to 3TB to accommodate growing workload demands.
Suited for Virtualization Hosts Needing High Core
This server fits organisations deploying hypervisors or container platforms that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity in a 1U form factor. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or fibre-channel connectivity should look elsewhere, as the unit relies on integrated graphics and the listed networking. Teams needing pre-installed drives or an operating system must provision those separately.

Questions about this item
How does the 40-core count perform when the server is running virtualization workloads?
Two Xeon Gold 6148 processors provide 40 cores at 2.4GHz, giving strong multi-thread capacity for multiple virtual machines and business applications.
What does the H730P controller cap for storage performance?
The H730P RAID controller manages the eight 2.5-inch drive bays and sets the practical throughput limit for the installed drives.
What clearance does the 1U rackmount chassis need for the included rails?
The 1U chassis mounts in a standard rack using the supplied rails and bezel; depth clearance depends on the rack specifications.
