DELL PowerEdge M640 Blade 2x Xeon Gold 5122 384GB DDR4 2x 4TB SATA

Dell PowerEdge M640 blade server

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a two-socket blade server built for dense compute environments. Two Intel Xeon Gold 5122 processors run at 3.6 GHz with 16.5 MB cache each. 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed and the chassis supports up to 1 TB. Dual 4 TB SATA 2.5-inch drives connect through a PERC H330 SAS storage controller.

Virtualisation and database hosts needing high

Workloads that benefit from high single-thread speed and large memory capacity fit this configuration. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than two internal drives should look at a different platform. The integrated graphics and two-drive limit restrict visual compute and local storage expansion.

3.6 GHz Xeon Gold 5122 clock speed

The 3.6 GHz base frequency of the Gold 5122 drives performance for latency-sensitive applications. Each CPU provides four cores with 16.5 MB cache. This clock speed is the decisive figure when comparing against lower-frequency Xeon models for the same socket.
