Dense virtualisation platform

The Dell PowerEdge R640 fits ten 2.5-inch drive trays into a 1U rackmount chassis, delivering 48 cores across two Xeon Platinum 8160 processors running at 2.1 GHz. It targets IT teams that need high core density for virtual machines, databases or application hosting without occupying multiple rack units.

Memory headroom and storage flexibility

512 GB of DDR4 is installed and the platform scales to 3 TB, so memory-heavy workloads have ample room to grow before a DIMM upgrade is required. Drives are not supplied, letting you populate the ten bays with the capacity and media type that match each workload.

Integrated RAID controller and front status LEDs

The H730P controller handles array management from day one, reducing setup time for storage-heavy deployments. Front-panel LEDs for power, Ethernet and USB give immediate visual feedback during maintenance windows without needing a remote console.

Questions about this item

Will the two Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs at 2.1GHz fit my existing LGA2066 motherboard?

Each Xeon Platinum 8160 uses the LGA2066 socket and runs at 2.10GHz; the server ships with two processors already installed.

How can I verify the H730P controller sees all ten 2.5-inch drive bays after installation?

The front panel LEDs show power, Ethernet and USB status; the H730P BIOS utility will list every detected bay during POST.

Does the box include any 2.5-inch drives or only the ten empty trays?

Drives are not included; the package provides the server chassis, two Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs, 512GB DDR4 memory, the H730P controller and ten 2.5-inch trays.
