Dense 1U Compute Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data center computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors, each running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots. Eight 800 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H730P 2 GB controller provide high-speed storage in a compact form factor.

Suits Virtualisation And Database Workloads

This server suits organisations running virtualisation clusters, in-memory databases or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from dual-socket performance and large memory capacity. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports supports demanding east-west traffic. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, GPU acceleration or storage interfaces beyond SATA and SAS should evaluate alternative platforms.

24 DIMM Slots Define Maximum Memory

The motherboard provides 24 DDR4 DIMM slots with a maximum supported capacity of 3 TB. Installed memory uses 32 GB registered ECC modules operating at 2666 MHz. This slot count and memory type determine whether the platform can reach your required capacity or if a higher-density system is necessary.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the R640 get when both 750 W power supplies run continuously?

The server uses redundant 750 W Platinum-efficiency power supplies; actual noise and thermal output depend on workload and rack airflow.

Which SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach cables must I provide for the Intel X520/I350 quad-port card?

The daughter card has two 10 GbE SFP+ ports; compatible SFP+ optics or DAC cables are not included.

Can my existing 2.5" SATA drives plug into the PERC H730P controller alongside the installed 800 GB SSDs?

Yes, the H730P supports SAS and SATA drives; open 2.5" bays accept additional SATA SSDs or HDDs for RAID or pass-through.
