Dual-socket 1U server for dense compute

The PowerEdge R640 packs two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 16-core processors at 2.1 GHz with 768 GB of DDR4 ECC memory into a single rack unit, delivering high core density for virtualisation clusters and database nodes.

Suited for scale-out compute, not GPU workloads

This configuration fits virtualisation clusters, database nodes and high-density compute farms that need dual-socket performance in a single rack unit. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or more than two processors should evaluate other platforms.

8 x 800 GB SATA SSDs on PERC H730P

Eight enterprise SATA solid-state drives connect through the PERC H730P 2 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, providing the storage throughput and redundancy this class of workload demands.

Questions about this item

What drives and accessories ship with the R640 and what must I add?

The server arrives with eight 800 GB SATA SSDs, the PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache, iDRAC9 Enterprise, two 750 W redundant power supplies, ready rails and a front bezel. No additional drives or rails are required for the eight 2.5-inch bays.

Should I choose the 768 GB configuration or add more memory later?

The system includes 768 GB across all 24 DDR4 slots using 32 GB modules. Maximum capacity is 3 TB, so you would need to replace modules with larger ones to expand beyond the factory amount.

How does the 2.1 GHz base clock translate to actual throughput with two 16-core Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs?

Two 16-core processors give 32 cores total at 2.1 GHz base, with turbo up to 3.7 GHz. The 768 GB of 2666 MHz DDR4 and the H730P 12 Gb/s controller feed those cores for dense scale-out workloads.
