Dell PowerEdge R640 44-Core Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6152 processors running at 2.10GHz, providing 44 cores total for multi-threaded performance. The system includes 768GB of DDR4 memory and eight 1TB SSDs managed by an H730P storage controller.

Verify rack space, power and memory limits

Confirm your rack has a free 1U slot and that your power distribution can support the unit. The server accepts DDR4 memory only and supports a maximum capacity of 3TB across its DIMM slots. Ensure any additional memory modules match the DDR4 specification and that your operating system licences cover the 44-core configuration before deployment.

Fits dense compute clusters and storage arrays

The eight 2.5-inch drive bays are fully populated with 1TB SSDs, freeing external storage shelves for other tiers. Integrated graphics handle console output without consuming a PCIe slot, leaving expansion capacity for network or accelerator cards. Front-panel LEDs for power, Ethernet and USB give at-a-glance status in a crowded rack.

Questions about this item

Does the R640 ship with the 8x 1TB SSDs and H730P controller already installed, or must I buy drives and a RAID card separately?

The server includes eight 1 TB solid-state drives and the H730P storage controller pre-installed, so no additional drives or RAID card are required.

Should I choose the 768 GB DDR4 configuration or plan to add memory up to the 3 TB maximum for heavy virtualization?

The 768 GB of DDR4 already fitted supports many virtual machines; add more modules later only if workloads exceed that capacity.

What does the 44-core total from the two Xeon Gold 6152 CPUs at 2.10 GHz mean for real-world database throughput?

Forty-four cores at 2.10 GHz deliver high parallel throughput for database queries and virtualization, limited mainly by memory and storage speed.
