10-bay virtualization server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server configured with two Intel Xeon Gold 6132 processors running at 2.60GHz. Twenty cores per socket deliver 28 cores total for compute-intensive workloads. It targets IT teams running virtualization, databases, file storage, backup or application hosting in a dense form factor.

Front-access 2.5-inch drive trays

Ten hot-swap bays accept 2.5-inch drives so storage can be tailored without opening the chassis. An integrated H730P RAID controller manages arrays and simplifies ongoing administration. Front-panel LEDs for power, Ethernet and USB give immediate status visibility during daily checks.

Memory-ready for dense VMs

The system ships with 256GB of DDR4 installed and supports up to 3TB for memory-heavy deployments. No operating system or drives are included, letting administrators choose hypervisor and storage media. Integrated graphics handles console output without a discrete GPU.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the R640 10B provide, and what does that cap my storage count at?

The 10B chassis includes ten 2.5-inch bays, so you can install up to ten drives. The H730P controller manages whatever mix of SSDs or HDDs you choose.

What rack depth and rail kit does the R640 need to mount in a standard cabinet?

It is a 1U rackmount server weighing 60 kg. You will need a compatible Dell sliding rail kit rated for that weight and a cabinet deep enough for the chassis length.

What is the correct order to seat the two Xeon Gold 6132 processors and the 256 GB DDR4 memory during installation?

Install both CPUs into the LGA3647 sockets first, then populate the memory slots evenly across the two processors. The common mistake is adding DIMMs before the second CPU is seated.
