DELL PowerEdge M640 Blade 2x Xeon Platinum 8160 2.1 GHz 48GB DDR4 2x 900GB SAS

Blade server with dual Xeon Platinum 8160 processors

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a blade server equipped with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs running at 2.1 GHz. It provides 48 GB of DDR4 memory and includes a PERC H330 SAS storage controller managing two 900 GB SAS hard drives. Integrated graphics and an iDRAC9 Enterprise module handle display output and remote management respectively. The unit measures 22 x 22 x 10 inches and weighs 20 units.

Suits dense compute clusters needing high core

This configuration delivers 48 cores and 33 MB cache per processor for heavily threaded workloads such as virtualisation or database tasks. The 48 GB memory capacity and dual 900 GB SAS drives limit scope for memory-intensive or storage-heavy deployments without expansion. Buyers who need larger memory footprints or additional drive bays should evaluate other platforms.

Dual Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs at 2.1 GHz define

Each processor contributes 24 cores and a 33 MB cache, yielding 48 cores total at a base frequency of 2.1 GHz. This core count and clock speed combination determines the server's throughput ceiling for parallel applications. Memory and storage can be expanded within chassis limits, but the processor complex is fixed at two sockets.
