Blade Server with Dual 18-Core Xeons

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server built for dense compute environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6150 processors, each running 18 cores at 2.7 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 16 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across two 8 GB modules and two 960 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC S140 controller.

For Virtualisation Hosts Needing Maximum Density

This blade suits operators filling PowerEdge MX or M1000e chassis with high core counts for virtualisation or private cloud workloads. The dual-socket design reaches 36 cores and supports up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 per server. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or more than two 2.5-inch drive bays should evaluate alternative platforms.

Dual Xeon Gold 6150 18-Core Configuration

The decisive specification is the pair of 18-core Xeon Gold 6150 CPUs, delivering 36 threads at 2.7 GHz base clock. This fixed processor complement determines the licensing footprint and peak compute capacity for the blade. Memory can be expanded to 1.5 TB across 16 slots, but the CPU configuration cannot be altered.

Questions about this item

Does the blade include the front bezel and rails, or must they be ordered separately?

The front bezel and ready rails are not included with this M640 blade and must be purchased separately if required for your chassis.

Should I choose the 16 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory up to the 2 TB maximum?

The server ships with 16 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC across 16 slots; add modules to match workload size, up to the 2 TB limit.

What does the 2.7 GHz base and 3.7 GHz turbo on the dual Xeon Gold 6150 CPUs mean for actual throughput?

Two 18-core Xeon Gold 6150 processors run at 2.7 GHz base and can boost to 3.7 GHz, delivering up to 56 total cores for heavy multi-threaded workloads.
