Dell PowerEdge M640 Blade Server

This Dell PowerEdge M640 blade server ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5222 processors running at 3.80 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 memory. It includes a PERC H330 SAS storage controller and two 300 GB SAS hard drives. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise.

Suited for dense compute clusters needing high

The four cores per processor at 3.80 GHz suit workloads that favour single-thread performance over core count. Buyers who need more than 256 GB of memory or more than two 2.5-inch drive bays should look at a different platform.

256 GB DDR4 memory installed

The system arrives with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across its DIMM slots. Maximum capacity reaches 1 TB, so the installed amount determines whether the blade meets the workload requirement immediately.

Questions about this item

Does the blade ship with the PERC H330 RAID controller and both 300 GB SAS drives installed, or must I add them?

The server comes with the PERC H330 controller and two 300 GB 10K SAS 2.5" drives already fitted; no extra storage parts are required.

Should I choose the dual Xeon Gold 5222 configuration at 3.80 GHz with 256 GB DDR4, or is a single-processor version available?

This unit is built with two Xeon Gold 5222 CPUs at 3.80 GHz and 256 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory; the chassis supports a maximum of two processors.

What does the 3.80 GHz clock speed mean for real-world throughput when both 4-core Gold 5222 CPUs are active?

With eight total cores running at 3.80 GHz and 16.5 MB cache each, the blade delivers strong single-thread performance for database and virtualization workloads.
