DELL PowerEdge R640 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6142 2.6GHz 16-core 768GB DDR4 8x 600GB SAS H730P

Dense 1U compute platform

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.6 GHz with 16 cores, delivering 32 cores in total. The system ships with 768 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots. It targets organisations that need high core density in a single rack unit for virtualisation, database or high-performance computing workloads.

Suited for scale-out workloads.

The eight 2.5-inch drive bays hold 600 GB 10K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache. Network connectivity comes from an Intel X520/I350 daughter card providing two 1 GbE and two 10 GbE SFP+ ports. Remote management uses iDRAC 9 Enterprise. Builders who need internal GPU acceleration or more than eight drive bays should consider a larger chassis.

Dual-socket 16-core limit defines capacity

Both LGA 3647 sockets are populated, so the server cannot accept additional processors. The Intel C620 chipset supports up to 3 TB of DDR4, leaving headroom for memory expansion. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and sliding rails are included for immediate rack deployment.
