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 runs on two Intel Xeon Gold 6152 processors delivering 44 cores total at 2.10GHz. The system includes 128GB of DDR4 memory and eight new 2TB SSDs managed by an H740P storage controller.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify your rack provides a 1U slot and sufficient depth for a 60-unit weight chassis. Confirm the LGA3647 socket platform matches your infrastructure standards and that your power distribution supports dual-CPU operation. Ensure your network cabling matches the onboard Ethernet LEDs and that you have an operating system licence ready, as none is included.

Suited for multi-VM and database roles.

This configuration suits IT teams running multiple virtual machines, heavy database instances or backup repositories that benefit from high core counts and all-flash capacity. Buyers who need dedicated GPU acceleration for rendering or AI training should look elsewhere, as only integrated graphics are present. Organisations requiring more than 3TB of memory or additional 2.5-inch drive bays beyond the eight provided will need a different platform.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and which items such as rails or an operating system must be purchased separately?

The server ships with two Xeon Gold 6152 processors, 128GB DDR4 memory, eight new 2TB SSDs, and an H740P controller. Rails and an operating system are not included.

How do I decide between the 44-core total and the 128GB memory versus the 3TB maximum capacity?

The 44 cores come from two 18-core CPUs plus hyper-threading; 128GB suits many virtualization workloads, while the 3TB ceiling allows future expansion with additional DDR4 modules.

What does the 2.10GHz base speed mean for real-world virtualization performance?

Each of the 18 cores per processor runs at 2.10GHz, providing consistent throughput for multiple virtual machines and database tasks without relying on turbo frequencies.
