DELL PowerEdge M640 Blade Server 2x Xeon Platinum 8260 24-Core 32GB DDR4 2x 1.92TB SSD

Dual Xeon 24-Core Blade Server

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a half-height blade server designed for the PowerEdge MX and 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 32 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four modules and two 1.92 TB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC S140 controller. iDRAC9 Enterprise provides remote management capabilities.

Suits dense virtualisation and HPC clusters

This configuration fits organisations that need maximum compute density within a supported MX or M1000e enclosure. The dual 24-core CPUs and 10 Gb dual-port networking handle heavy virtualisation, private cloud and high-performance computing workloads. Buyers who need more than 32 GB of memory or additional drive bays should look at a different configuration. Systems requiring a full-height form factor or a standalone rackmount server are not compatible with this blade format.

Two-socket LGA 3647 with 24 cores per CPU

The server board accepts up to two processors in LGA 3647 sockets and this unit already populates both with 24-core Xeon Platinum 8260 chips. Memory capacity can scale to 2 TB using the 16 available DDR4 slots. Storage uses SATA or SAS interfaces through the integrated S140 controller with RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 support. The Broadcom 57810S-K daughter card delivers dual-port 10 Gb connectivity. No operating system is included.
