DELL PowerEdge R640 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6130 2.1GHz 16-core 128GB DDR4 8x 600GB SAS H730P

Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 fits two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors and 128GB of DDR4 memory into a single rack unit. Eight 600GB SAS drives connect through a PERC H730P controller with battery-backed cache. Redundant 750W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management come standard.

Suits scale-out compute clusters

This configuration serves virtualization hosts, database nodes and high-performance computing workloads that need maximum core density per rack unit. Buyers who need more internal storage bays or GPU acceleration should look at larger chassis designs. The fixed 1U height also limits PCIe expansion compared with 2U platforms.

16 cores per processor at 2.1 GHz

Each Gold 6130 runs 16 cores at a 2.10 GHz base frequency with a 3.7 GHz turbo ceiling. That core count and clock speed define the throughput ceiling for every workload on this server. Match the processor specification to your licensing and threading requirements before ordering.
