Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for dense scale-out data centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors at 3.2GHz, each with eight cores and 3.7GHz turbo. The system includes 512GB of DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory across sixteen modules. A PERC H730P controller with 2GB cache drives two 400GB SATA SSDs.

Ideal for scale-out compute and virtualisation

This server suits environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit. The dual 750W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise simplify remote management and uptime. Organisations requiring more than two processor sockets, additional GPU acceleration or storage interfaces beyond SATA and SAS should consider alternative form factors.

PERC H730P RAID controller

The installed Dell PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Its 2GB cache and battery-backed write cache accelerate array performance and protect data during power loss. This specification determines whether the storage topology matches your redundancy and throughput requirements.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell PowerEdge R640 ship with the front bezel and sliding rails, or must they be ordered separately?

The server includes both the front bezel and ReadyRails sliding rails in the box, so no separate purchase is required for rack mounting.

Should I choose the configuration with 512 GB DDR4 installed or add more modules to reach the 3 TB maximum?

The system arrives with 512 GB across 16 slots, leaving 8 slots free; add memory later only if your workloads need more than 512 GB.

What does the 3.2 GHz base clock on the two Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs mean for actual throughput?

Each processor runs at 3.2 GHz base and can turbo to 3.7 GHz, giving 16 total cores for parallel workloads in a 1U form factor.
