Purpose-built 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage, backups and application hosting. It targets IT teams that need dense compute in a single rack unit for production environments.

Straightforward deployment with SAS drives

The server arrives populated with ten 1.2 TB SAS drives and the H740P RAID controller, so storage arrays can be configured before the operating system is installed. Drive caddies match the 2.5-inch bays, reducing the chance of misalignment during initial setup.

128 GB DDR4 and 12 TB raw capacity

Dual Xeon Gold 6134 processors and 128 GB of DDR4 memory provide headroom for multiple virtual machines and data-heavy applications. The ten drives deliver 12 TB of raw storage; workloads that demand higher IOPS or larger datasets will require additional enclosures or all-flash arrays.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the two Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs and 128GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?

Enter the system BIOS or iDRAC interface on startup; both screens list each processor by model and show the total installed memory as 128GB DDR4.

Which components ship inside the 1U chassis and which must be sourced separately?

The box contains the R640 1U server with two Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs, 128GB DDR4, ten 1.2TB SAS drives and the H740P RAID controller; rails, power cords and operating system licences are not included.

When should I choose the 10-bay 2.5-inch version with ten 1.2TB SAS drives?

Select this configuration when you need high drive count in a 1U form factor for virtualisation, databases or backup workloads that benefit from the H740P controller and 128GB DDR4 memory.
