44-Core Rack Server for Virtualization

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage, backups and application hosting. Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6152 processors deliver 44 total cores at 2.10GHz to handle concurrent services and virtual machines. It targets IT teams consolidating multiple applications onto a single chassis.

384GB DDR4 with Room to 3TB

Installed memory sits at 384GB DDR4 across available DIMM slots, supporting large memory footprints for hypervisors and in-memory databases. The platform scales to a 3TB maximum when all slots are populated with higher-capacity modules. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays are filled with 1TB SSDs, providing 8TB of flash storage for operating systems, virtual machines and business data; storage headroom ends when all bays are occupied.

H730P Controller and Front LEDs

An integrated H730P storage controller manages the eight SSDs and simplifies array configuration and daily management tasks. Front-panel LEDs for power, Ethernet and USB give immediate visual status without opening the chassis. The 60kg unit requires a standard 1U rack space and suitable lifting equipment; it ships without an operating system, so administrators must supply their own hypervisor or OS licences. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or more than eight drive bays should consider alternative chassis.

Questions about this item

Will the R640 accept my existing 2.5" drives in its eight front bays?

The server provides eight 2.5-inch front bays, so any 2.5-inch drives you already own can be installed directly.

Which front-panel LEDs confirm the R640 is running normally after setup?

Power, Ethernet and USB LEDs on the front panel show system power, network link activity and USB device status respectively.

Does the box include an operating system or must I supply one?

No operating system is included; you will need to provide and install your own OS after the server arrives.
