Dense 1U Dual-Socket Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for scale-out data center deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors, each running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and ready rails are installed.

Virtualisation Hosts and Database Nodes

This configuration suits buyers who need high core density and fast SAS storage in a single rack unit. The eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives and PERC H730P controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Organisations that require GPU compute, larger drive bays or more than two processors should look elsewhere.

24 DDR4 Slots with 3 TB Ceiling

The motherboard provides 24 DIMM slots and a maximum memory capacity of 3 TB. Only DDR4 registered ECC modules are compatible. Buyers planning future memory expansion must match this memory type and the LGA 3647 socket.
