Dual-Socket 1U Server for Dense Scale-Out

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data centre computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 8-core processors running at 2.1 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory. A PERC H730P controller and eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives provide the internal storage foundation.

Suited for Virtualisation and Database Workloads

This configuration fits environments that need dual-socket performance in a single rack unit with redundant 750 W power supplies and quad-port 1 GbE/10 GbE networking. Buyers who require more than 24 DIMM slots or a higher installed memory capacity should evaluate larger chassis options.

24 DIMM Slots Define Maximum Memory

The system board offers 24 DDR4 slots supporting up to 3 TB total capacity. That slot count is the deciding factor for any deployment planning to grow beyond the factory-installed 256 GB.

Questions about this item

What storage speeds does the 12Gb/s SAS H730P controller cap in practice?

The PERC H730P supports 12Gb/s SAS and SATA drives with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode.

What rack depth do the included Ready Rails need for this 1U server?

Ready Rails are supplied with the unit and fit standard four-post racks; verify your cabinet depth before mounting the 1U chassis.

How do you enable remote management on the iDRAC9 Enterprise module, and what step is often missed?

Connect the dedicated iDRAC network port, set a static IP in the Lifecycle Controller, then configure the enterprise licence — skipping the licence activation leaves advanced features disabled.
