DELL PowerEdge R640 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6130 2.1GHz 16C 64GB DDR4 8x 400GB SSD H730P

Dual-socket 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data center computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.10 GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots. Eight 400 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache handle storage.

Suits dense virtualization; not for GPU workloads

This configuration suits environments that need high core counts and fast local storage in a single rack unit, such as virtualization clusters or database nodes. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than 3 TB of memory should look at larger platforms.

3 TB maximum memory capacity

The Intel C620 chipset supports up to 3 TB of DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots, which is the decisive figure for memory-heavy deployments. The installed 64 GB leaves ample room for expansion using registered ECC modules. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise complete the enterprise-ready feature set.
