Dell PowerEdge M640 Blade

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a blade server configured with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz. It provides 384 GB of DDR4 memory and 1.8 TB of SAS storage across two 900 GB drives. The unit includes a PERC H330 RAID controller and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management.

Suited for dense compute clusters

This configuration suits environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a compact blade form factor. Buyers who require more than 1 TB of total memory or additional drive bays beyond the two 2.5-inch slots should consider a different platform. Sites without an existing blade enclosure infrastructure cannot deploy this unit.

Maximum memory capacity is 1 TB

The system supports a maximum memory capacity of 1 TB using DDR4 SDRAM. The installed 384 GB leaves headroom for future expansion within the same chassis. Verify that your workload fits within this ceiling before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What chassis slot size and depth does this M640 blade require?

The blade is a half-height form factor measuring 22 by 22 by 10 inches and weighing 20 pounds.

Which firmware step is often missed when installing the PERC H330 controller with the 900 GB SAS drives?

After seating the blade, update the PERC H330 firmware to the latest stable version before creating any virtual disks.

When will the 900 GB 10K SAS drives likely need replacement in a 24/7 workload?

Enterprise 10K SAS drives typically reach their rated MTBF after several years of continuous operation; plan a proactive swap around the five-year mark.
