Blade Density and Compute Scale

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for dense virtualization and high-performance computing clusters. It installs into PowerEdge MX or M1000e chassis and provides two Intel Xeon Gold 6150 processors, each with 18 cores running at 2.7 GHz and a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The configuration suits organizations consolidating workloads in a shared infrastructure.

Sustained Multi-Core Thermal Envelope

With 36 total cores and 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 slots, the server maintains throughput under continuous multi-threaded loads such as database hosting or virtual desktop infrastructure. The dual-socket design and blade airflow path keep frequencies stable during extended computation without the throttling seen in smaller form factors.

SAS SATA Controller and Network Throughput

The integrated PERC H330 controller manages the two 1.92 TB SATA SSDs and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50 over a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface. A Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 Gb blade network daughter card handles east-west traffic inside the chassis, while iDRAC9 Enterprise provides out-of-band management independent of the operating system.

Questions about this item

How much power does the dual Xeon Gold 6150 configuration draw under sustained load?

The two 18-core Xeon Gold 6150 CPUs have a base frequency of 2.7 GHz and turbo to 3.7 GHz; actual power draw depends on workload and chassis cooling.

Which chassis and interconnects are required to operate this half-height blade?

It fits a PowerEdge MX or M1000e enclosure and uses the installed Broadcom 57810S-K 10 Gb dual-port daughter card for network connectivity.

Can the existing H330 controller and 1.92 TB SATA SSDs share a backplane with older SAS drives?

The PERC H330 supports mixed SATA and SAS devices on the same backplane with RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50.
