Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for scale-out data centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz, 768 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across 24 slots, and eight 400 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies, an X520/I350 quad-port network card and iDRAC9 Enterprise complete the platform.

Suits compute-dense virtualization.

This configuration fits clusters that need high core counts and fast memory in a single rack unit. Buyers who require more than eight drive bays, larger individual drives, or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms. The fixed 1U chassis also limits PCIe expansion to the installed daughter card.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The storage controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, backed by a battery-protected 2 GB cache. This specification determines the RAID levels and write-caching performance available to the eight installed SATA SSDs.

Questions about this item

Will this server accept the 24 DDR4 2666 MHz ECC modules I already have?

Yes, the R640 has 24 DDR4 slots and ships with 768 GB installed as 24 × 32 GB modules at 2666 MHz.

Can the PERC H730P controller manage my existing 2.5" SATA drives alongside the eight 400 GB SSDs?

The H730P supports SAS and SATA, so additional 2.5" SATA drives can be added to the remaining bays and configured in RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60.

How do I confirm the dual Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs are both active after installation?

Check iDRAC9 Enterprise or the BIOS processor view; both sockets should show an 8-core Xeon Gold 6134 running at 3.2 GHz base / 3.7 GHz turbo.
