DELL PowerEdge M640 2x Xeon Gold 6154 18C 16GB DDR4 2x 1.92TB SSD H330 57810S-K iDRAC9 Enterprise blade server

Dense Compute Blade

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6154 processors. Each CPU runs 18 cores at 3.0 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency, delivering 36 cores in a single slot. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 registered ECC memory and a PERC H330 controller come installed. The unit fits MX and M1000e chassis and includes iDRAC9 Enterprise for remote management. No operating system is loaded.

Virtualisation And HPC Target

This configuration suits teams running virtualised workloads, private clouds or high-performance compute jobs that benefit from high core counts and fast 10 Gb networking. Buyers who need larger memory footprints, additional drive bays or GPU acceleration should evaluate other platforms. The blade ships without a front bezel or ready rails, so those accessories must be sourced separately if required.

Dual Gold 6154 CPUs

Two 18-core Xeon Gold 6154 processors provide the core density that defines this blade's capacity. Sixteen memory slots support up to 2 TB of DDR4, while the H330 controller manages the two installed 1.92 TB SATA SSDs in RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 or 50. A Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 Gb daughter card handles network connectivity.
