Dual-socket 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors running at 2.10 GHz with 8 cores each. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 8 modules. The system includes a PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller, two 300 GB 10K SAS drives, and redundant 750 W platinum power supplies.

Suits dense scale-out workloads

This server targets data centre deployments that need high compute density in a single rack unit with dual-processor performance and hardware RAID. Buyers who require more than 24 DIMM slots, more than 8 x 2.5-inch drive bays, or a different network interface than the provided quad-port 1 GbE and 10 GbE SFP+ card should consider other platforms.

PERC H730P 2 GB RAID controller

The installed PERC H730P controller provides 2 GB of cache and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 plus pass-through mode. This single component determines the available storage redundancy, performance, and maximum logical volume configuration for the two included 300 GB SAS drives and any additional SAS or SATA drives added to the 8-bay chassis.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with rails, a bezel and the network card, or do I need to order them separately?

The listing includes ready rails, a front bezel and the Intel X520/I350 quad-port network daughter card with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports already installed.

Should I choose the 300 GB SAS drives or a larger capacity for a database workload?

The unit comes with two 300 GB 10 K SAS drives; the H730P controller supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 so you can add more 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives to grow capacity and redundancy.

What does the 2.1 GHz Xeon Silver 4110 speed mean when the server is running a full virtualization load?

Each of the two 8-core processors runs at a base frequency of 2.1 GHz and can turbo up to 3.0 GHz, while the 256 GB of 2400 MHz DDR4 ECC memory feeds all cores for dense VM deployments.
