1U Rack Server for Virtualisation

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for virtualisation, private cloud and high-performance computing. Dual Xeon Gold 6148 processors provide 20 cores each at 2.40 GHz with turbo up to 3.70 GHz. It suits small businesses and enterprises needing dense compute in a compact form factor.

Memory and Storage Headroom

The system ships with 256 GB of DDR4 PC4-25600 memory across eight 32 GB modules running at 3200 MHz. Storage comprises four 1.92 TB enterprise SATA SSDs totalling 7.68 TB, managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller with 2 GB NV cache. Memory and drives are supplied separately and require installation before use.

Build Integration and Management

Dual redundant power supplies allow hot-swap replacement without downtime. Networking uses a Broadcom BCM5720 quad-port 1 GbE BASE-T controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Express. A rail kit is included for rack mounting, while the 1U height fits standard cabinets. Memory and storage upgrades are provided as separate components.

Questions about this item

Will the R640 fit in the same 1U rack space as my older Dell servers?

How can I confirm the PERC H730 RAID controller is active after installing the four 1.92 TB SSDs?

During POST the H730 BIOS will list the virtual disk, and iDRAC9 Express shows the array status in its storage view.

Do the 256 GB of DDR4 memory and the 7.68 TB of SSDs ship already installed?

No, the 8 x 32 GB DDR4 modules and 4 x 1.92 TB SATA SSDs are included separately and require installation.
