Dense 1U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out deployments. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors run at 3.2 GHz with eight cores each. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 memory populate four of twenty-four slots. Eight 2.4 TB SAS hard drives connect through a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache.

Suits virtualisation and database clusters

This configuration fits workloads that need two sockets, SAS storage and quad-port 1GbE plus 10Gb SFP+ networking in a single rack unit. iDRAC9 Enterprise provides full remote management. Buyers who need more than twenty-four DIMM slots, more than eight drive bays or GPU compute should look at larger platforms.

PERC H730P RAID controller decides fit

The H730P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Battery-backed cache protects writes during power loss. If the application requires a different RAID feature set or a non-RAID HBA, this server will not match the requirement.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?

The system ships with dual Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs, 64 GB DDR4 in four 16 GB modules, eight 2.4 TB SAS drives, PERC H730P controller, quad-port X520/I350 network card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, dual 750 W PSUs, rails and bezel. Additional memory or drives are optional.

Should I choose the 64 GB configuration or add more DDR4?

64 GB uses four of 24 slots, leaving room to reach 3 TB. Add matched 2666 MHz registered ECC modules in multiples of four for best performance.

What does the 3.2 GHz base clock mean in daily workloads?

Each Gold 6134 runs at 3.2 GHz base and can turbo to 3.7 GHz, giving strong single-thread speed for databases and virtualization while the 16 total cores handle parallel tasks.
