1U rack server for virtualization and databases

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, backups, and application hosting. It ships with Windows Server 2019 Standard installed. Two Xeon Gold 6248 processors deliver 40 cores in total. This configuration suits environments that need dense compute in a single rack unit.

Sustained load with dual Xeon Gold 6248 CPUs

The dual 20-core Xeon Gold 6248 processors run at a base frequency of 2.50GHz to maintain steady throughput across parallel workloads. With the maximum of two processors installed, the platform avoids the performance drop that can occur when only one socket is populated. The H740P RAID controller manages the storage array during continuous read and write cycles.

Check rack depth, power.

Before ordering, verify that your rack can accommodate a 1U server and that your power distribution units supply the required connectors for dual-CPU operation. The system uses DDR4 memory; any additional modules must match this generation. Confirm that your storage controller or backplane supports SATA SSDs for the ten installed 1.92TB drives.
