Built for heavy virtualization

The Dell R640 carries two Xeon Gold 6254 processors at 3.10GHz with 20 cores each and 768GB of DDR4-2666 memory. An integrated H740P controller manages storage while ten 2.5-inch bays, eight of them NVMe-capable, await drive selection. The system suits businesses running multiple virtual machines, large databases or mixed application stacks.

Suited for teams that configure their own storage

Buyers who need drives pre-installed or a pre-loaded operating system should look elsewhere, as the server ships without either. The 768GB memory ceiling is fixed unless additional modules are purchased separately. Workloads requiring GPU acceleration will not benefit from the integrated graphics only.

Ten 2.5-inch bays with eight NVMe-capable slots

This bay count and NVMe support dictate how many high-speed drives can be fitted directly. The H740P controller handles RAID duties for the chosen drive mix. Expansion beyond these ten bays requires external enclosures not covered by this chassis.

Questions about this item

Do I need to supply my own 2.5" drives for the ten drive bays?

Yes, the server ships without storage drives so you can select the capacity and type that suit your workload.

Will the H740P controller manage drives I keep from an older Dell rack server?

The H740P supports the 2.5" form factor used in the ten bays, so compatible drives from earlier systems can be reused.

How can I verify the 768GB of DDR4 memory is recognised after installation?

Check the BIOS memory summary or the operating system memory report to confirm the full 768GB is detected and running at 2666 MT/s.
