Dual Xeon Gold 6134 1U server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense scale-out data centre computing. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores each. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across sixteen modules. A PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache manages storage.

Suited for virtualisation hosts, not GPU workloads

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance computing clusters that benefit from dual-socket density and large memory capacity. The 1U form factor and redundant 750 W power supplies support continuous operation in standard racks. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or more than eight internal drive bays should evaluate alternative platforms.

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays with two 800 GB SSDs

The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch hot-swap bays connected to the H730P controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs are installed, leaving six bays available for expansion. Maximum memory capacity reaches 3 TB across twenty-four DDR4 slots for future growth.

Questions about this item

Will my existing 2.5-inch SATA drives work in the eight drive bays of this R640?

The chassis has eight 2.5-inch bays wired to the PERC H730P controller which supports SATA and SAS, so your current SATA SSDs or HDDs will install and be managed by the same RAID firmware.

How can I confirm both Xeon Gold 6134 processors and all 512GB of DDR4 2666MHz memory are detected after first boot?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise web interface or watch the POST screen; both will list two 8-core CPUs at 3.2GHz and show sixteen 32GB DIMMs totalling 512GB.

Which items ship inside the box and what must I source separately?

The server arrives with two CPUs, 512GB RAM, H730P controller, two 800GB SATA SSDs, X520/I350 quad-port card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, two 750W PSUs, bezel and ready rails; OS licences and extra drives are not included.
