DELL PowerEdge R640 10B 28-Core 2x Xeon Gold 6132 2.60GHz 512GB DDR4 H730P 10x 1TB rack server

Dense virtualisation server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 10B is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualisation, databases and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6132 processors deliver 28 cores at 2.60GHz, while 512GB of DDR4 memory supports multiple concurrent virtual machines and data-intensive services. An integrated H730P controller manages the ten installed 1TB SATA SSDs.

Suited for multi-service consolidation

IT teams consolidating file storage, backup targets and virtualised applications onto a single dense platform will benefit from the high core count and large memory capacity. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets, GPU acceleration, or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms. The 10-bay 2.5-inch chassis also limits total drive count compared with larger form factors.

Ten-bay 2.5-inch drive capacity

The chassis provides ten hot-plug 2.5-inch bays populated with 1TB SATA SSDs, defining the raw storage available before any RAID configuration. This bay count and drive format are the primary constraints when planning capacity expansion or workload placement.
