Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.10 GHz with 16 cores. It includes 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS hard drives. A PERC H730P controller, quad-port 1GbE/10GbE networking, iDRAC9 Enterprise and redundant 750 W power supplies complete the package.

Suited for dense scale-out workloads

This configuration fits organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit for virtualisation, database or high-performance computing clusters. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or more than two processor sockets should consider other platforms. The system also lacks installed solid-state drives if flash storage is a requirement.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The installed 512 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory determines whether this server meets your workload’s capacity and reliability needs. The platform supports up to 3 TB across 24 slots, so the current population leaves room for expansion. Confirm that your applications and operating system can utilise this memory configuration before purchase.
