Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF Xeon Gold Server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 rack server arrives new with a single Intel Xeon Gold 5218R processor running at 2.1 GHz and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 4LFF chassis provides four 3.5-inch drive bays backed by a PERC H740P RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Suits single-socket workloads needing four

This configuration suits buyers who want a single 20-core Xeon Gold processor and up to four SATA drives in a 1U rack form factor. It is not for buyers who need a second processor installed, more than four 3.5-inch bays, or a different drive interface than the SATA connection provided by the PERC H740P controller.

One Xeon Gold 5218R at 2.1 GHz with 27.5 MB cache

The processor is a 20-core Xeon Gold 5218R operating at 2.1 GHz with 27.5 MB of cache. The system board supports a second processor socket and up to 7.68 TB of DDR4 memory when fully populated.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the R640 is running correctly after initial setup?

Log into the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface to confirm the Xeon Gold 5218R shows 20 cores at 2.1 GHz, all 128GB DDR4 ECC memory is detected, and the PERC H740P controller reports healthy status with no drive errors.

What components come installed and what must I source separately?

The server ships with 1x Xeon Gold 5218R processor, 128GB DDR4 ECC registered RAM, PERC H740P RAID controller, dual 750W power supplies, 10Gb 2-port 562T network adapter, and iDRAC9 Enterprise; 3.5" SATA drives and rail kit are not included.

Which configuration choice fits my workload between the available versions?

This 4LFF chassis supports up to four 3.5" SATA drives via the H740P controller; choose drive capacity and RAID level based on your storage throughput and redundancy needs, while the single 5218R leaves a second CPU socket open for future expansion.
