36-Core Rack Server for Virtualization
The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage, backups, and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6154 processors deliver 36 total cores at 3.0GHz to handle concurrent services and data-heavy applications. The system ships with 512GB of DDR4 memory installed and supports up to 3TB maximum capacity.
Ten 2.5-Inch Drive Bays and H730P Controller
Ten front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays accept the storage media you select, allowing capacity and drive type to match specific workload requirements. An integrated H730P storage controller simplifies RAID configuration and ongoing array management. The platform uses LGA3647 sockets with two processors installed and no additional CPU slots available.
Suited for Dense Compute and Memory Tasks
This configuration suits organisations running multiple virtual machines, database instances, or containerised services that benefit from high core counts and large memory footprints. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than two processor sockets, or 3.5-inch drive form factors should evaluate alternative platforms.

Questions about this item
What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 6154 CPUs run at 3.0 GHz continuously?
The system is built for sustained workloads such as virtualization and databases, and the integrated cooling is designed to handle the heat from two 18-core processors under full load.
How much fan noise and heat should I expect when the R640 runs all day with a full complement of drives?
The 1U rack chassis uses high-speed fans that increase speed with CPU and drive temperatures; expect noticeable airflow noise in a quiet room and plan for adequate rack cooling.
Which components are not included and must be supplied before the server can boot?
No operating system or storage drives are included; you must provide at least one 2.5" drive and an OS installation media to make the system operational.
