Built for virtualization and databases

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 36-core rackmount server with two Xeon Gold 6154 processors running at 3.00GHz. It targets businesses that need reliable compute for virtualization, file storage, databases and application hosting. The 128GB DDR4 memory supports multiple services and virtual machines simultaneously.

Installation and common issues

The chassis provides 10 drive bays for 2.5-inch drives, eight of which are NVMe capable, and includes an H730P storage controller to simplify setup. Drives are not included so you must source and install them yourself. The system arrives tested and certified with accessories in a generic box.

Capacity and headroom

Two processor sockets are fully populated with 12-core CPUs each, giving 36 total cores at the base frequency. Memory can scale from the installed 128GB up to a 3TB maximum using DDR4 modules. The integrated GPU handles basic display output only.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the server is operating correctly after initial setup?

Check the front-panel Power, Ethernet, and USB LEDs for normal activity and verify the BIOS reports both Xeon Gold 6154 CPUs, 36 total cores at 3.00GHz, and 128GB DDR4 memory.

What components are included and what must I purchase separately?

The chassis, dual Xeon Gold 6154 processors, 128GB DDR4, H730P controller, and ten 2.5" drive trays (eight NVMe-capable) are included; storage drives and an operating system are not.

Which memory capacity should I select for this configuration?

The system ships with 128GB DDR4 installed and supports expansion up to 3TB; add modules in matched sets if your workloads need more than the factory-fitted amount.
