Blade server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server that fits into PowerEdge MX or M1000e chassis. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8260 processors, each running at 2.40 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 slots.

Suits virtualization and HPC clusters

This configuration targets workloads such as virtualization, private cloud and high-performance computing where core density and memory capacity matter. Buyers who need local NVMe storage beyond the S140 controller or who require a rack-mount form factor instead of a blade should look at something else.

Dual 10 GbE daughter card for fabric

The installed Broadcom 57810S-K dual-port 10 GbE blade network daughter card provides the primary high-speed fabric connectivity for the blade. Buyers whose chassis networking uses a different interconnect speed or vendor will need to replace this card.
