Dell PowerEdge M640 Blade Server

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a two-socket blade server built for dense compute clusters. It ships with dual Intel Xeon Gold 6152 processors running at 2.1 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 memory. A PERC H330 controller manages two 1.8 TB SAS drives. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise provides remote management.

Suited for virtualisation hosts needing high core

This configuration fits environments that run many virtual machines on a single blade and rely on SAS storage. It is not for workloads that demand GPU acceleration, more than two internal drive bays, or memory beyond the installed 256 GB without adding modules.

Dual Xeon Gold 6152 at 2.1 GHz with 256 GB DDR4

The pair of 22-core Xeon Gold 6152 CPUs and the 256 GB DDR4 capacity set the performance ceiling for this blade. Buyers should verify that the core count, clock speed and memory amount match their licensing and workload requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I verify both Xeon Gold 6152 processors are detected at 2.1 GHz after installation?

Enter the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface or BIOS during boot; both CPUs should appear with 22 cores each running at 2.1 GHz.

Which components are included and which must be sourced separately?

The blade ships with two Xeon Gold 6152 CPUs, 256 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, two 1.8 TB SAS hard drives, a PERC H330 RAID controller, and a 10 Gb dual-port 562T network adapter; rails and any enclosure mounting hardware are ordered separately.

Should I select the 256 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory up to the 1 TB maximum?

Choose 256 GB for typical virtualization or database workloads; add additional DDR4 modules only if your application sizing calls for more than the installed capacity.
