DELL PowerEdge R640 1U 2x Xeon Gold 6142 2.6GHz 16C 128GB DDR4 8x 1.2TB SAS H730P rack server

Dual-socket 1U compute density

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out workloads. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors at 2.6 GHz with 16 cores each provide high core count in a compact form factor. 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory supports demanding virtualization and database tasks.

Suited for virtualization clusters.

This configuration fits buyers who need maximum CPU cores and storage bays in a single rack unit. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays and dual 10 Gb SFP+ ports serve storage-intensive and network-heavy applications. Buyers requiring GPU acceleration or more than two processor sockets should evaluate alternative platforms.

Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives define storage capacity

The PERC H730P controller manages eight enterprise 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. This drive count and speed set the usable capacity and IOPS ceiling for the system. Confirm the total raw storage meets the dataset size before deployment.
