Dual-socket Xeon Gold 6154 server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 10B is a 1U rackmount system fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 6154 processors running at 3.0GHz. Together they deliver 36 cores for virtualization, databases and multi-threaded business applications. The chassis ships with 128GB of DDR4 memory installed and supports expansion up to 3TB for growing workloads.

Ten 2.5-inch drive bays with H730P controller

Storage is provided through ten front-accessible 2.5-inch bays driven by an integrated H730P RAID controller. Drives are not included, so capacity and media type are chosen to match the deployment. The controller handles array management without adding a separate card, keeping the internal layout clear for airflow.

Integrated graphics and LGA2066 platform

Video output relies on the processor's integrated graphics, limiting the system to console and remote-management use. Both CPUs sit in LGA2066 sockets and the board is populated to its two-processor maximum, so no further CPU upgrades are possible. Front-panel LEDs show power, Ethernet and USB status for quick rack-side checks.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 10-bay version or a model with fewer bays for the R640?

The 10-bay chassis holds up to ten 2.5" drives, giving more storage slots in the same 1U space than smaller-bay models.

What does the 36-core total mean when the server is running virtual machines?

Two Xeon Gold 6154 CPUs provide 36 cores at 3.0GHz, allowing many vCPUs to be allocated to VMs without heavy oversubscription.

How does the H730P controller limit drive performance in practice?

The H730P manages the 10 drive bays through its onboard RAID engine, so maximum throughput is bound by that controller's capabilities.
