DELL PowerEdge M640 Blade 2x Xeon Gold 5215 256GB DDR4 2x 1.8TB SAS

Dell PowerEdge M640 blade for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for environments that need high processor density in a shared enclosure. Two Intel Xeon Gold 5215 CPUs deliver 20 cores at 2.5 GHz with 13.75 MB cache each. 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory supports large virtualisation workloads. Dual 1.8 TB SAS drives and a PERC H330 RAID controller provide local storage with hardware redundancy. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables full remote management.

Suited for virtualisation clusters and HPC nodes

This configuration fits organisations running hypervisor clusters, database nodes or high-performance compute tasks that benefit from dual-socket performance in a blade form factor. Buyers who need more than two internal drives or who require GPU acceleration should evaluate other platforms. The fixed 256 GB memory may limit workloads that scale beyond the installed capacity without additional modules.

Dual Xeon Gold 5215 processors define

The pair of 10-core Xeon Gold 5215 CPUs sets the thread count, clock speed and cache available to every workload on this blade. Memory can be expanded to 1 TB across the chassis slots, but the processor choice cannot be changed after purchase. Confirm that the 20 combined cores and 2.5 GHz base frequency match your licensing and throughput requirements before ordering.
