PowerEdge M640 blade server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server designed for high-density deployments. It ships new with two Xeon Gold 5220S processors running at 2.7 GHz, providing 36 total cores. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across the installed DIMM slots. Integrated graphics and a 10 GbE two-port 562T adapter handle display and network connectivity.

Suits virtualisation clusters needing many cores

This configuration works well for organisations building virtualisation hosts or container platforms where core count and memory capacity matter more than local storage. The PERC H330 controller manages the two installed 1.8 TB SAS drives in a hardware RAID array. Buyers who need more than two 2.5-inch drive bays, discrete GPU acceleration, or fibre-channel connectivity should evaluate other platforms.

Two 1.8 TB SAS drives set the storage baseline

The server includes exactly two 1.8 TB SAS hard drives as the only internal storage. The PERC H330 RAID controller supports RAID 0 and 1 across these drives. If your workload requires larger capacity, faster media, or more than two drives, you must reconfigure the chassis or add external storage.
