Dense 1U Dual-Socket Platform

The PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for scale-out data centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo, 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, and a PERC H730P 2 GB controller managing two 800 GB SATA SSDs in eight 2.5-inch bays.

Suited For And Not Suited For

This server suits operators who need high compute density, redundant 750 W platinum power supplies, quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management in a single rack unit. Buyers who require more than two 800 GB SATA SSDs of local storage or who need additional drive bays beyond the eight provided should consider a different chassis.

Deciding Specification

The installed memory is DDR4 registered ECC at 2666 MHz; the board has 24 DIMM slots and supports up to 3 TB total capacity. Confirm that your workload fits within the two 800 GB SATA SSDs and that DDR4 registered ECC modules match your upgrade plans before purchasing.

What physical mounting hardware is included with this 1U server?

The unit includes Dell Ready Rails and a front bezel for rack installation.

How is the iDRAC 9 Enterprise remote management card installed and what step is often missed?

iDRAC 9 Enterprise is integrated on the system board; the common miss is forgetting to connect the dedicated management network port and configure a static IP before first use.
