DELL PowerEdge R640 1U rack server Dual Xeon 6130 2.10 GHz 256GB 30.72TB

Compact 1U rack server for virtualisation and cloud

This Dell PowerEdge R640 fits a standard 1U rack space and ships with a rail kit for straightforward mounting. Dual Xeon Gold 6130 processors provide 32 cores at 2.10 GHz, boosting to 3.70 GHz, while 256 GB of DDR4 memory supports dense virtualisation, private cloud and high-performance computing workloads. The system is designed for continuous operation in small-business or enterprise environments.

Hot-swap power and quad 1 GbE networking

Redundant hot-swappable power supplies let you replace a unit without taking the server offline, keeping critical applications running. A Broadcom BCM5720 controller delivers four 1 GbE BASE-T ports through the rNDC interface for flexible network connectivity. The PERC H730 RAID controller with 2 GB non-volatile cache manages the four 7.68 TB enterprise SATA SSDs, providing 30.72 TB of high-speed storage in hot-swap 2.5-inch bays. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Express for out-of-band monitoring and control.

Memory and drives require installation before use

The 256 GB DDR4 memory kit and the four 7.68 TB SSDs are supplied separately and must be installed prior to deployment. Verify that your rack provides sufficient depth and airflow for a 1U server with front drive bays and rear I/O. Confirm that your network infrastructure supports 1 GbE copper connections and that your storage topology can use the PERC H730 RAID controller. Ensure power distribution units can supply redundant feeds for the dual power supplies.
