Ready for deployment

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server built for dense compute workloads. It ships with one Intel Xeon Gold 6226R running at 2.9 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides four 3.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H740P RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Ideal for virtualisation hosts

The single 16-core processor and 16 GB base memory suit small-to-medium virtualisation clusters, databases or file services that can scale to 7.68 TB of RAM. Organisations needing dual-socket performance or GPU acceleration should evaluate larger platforms because the installed CPU count is one of two maximum and graphics are integrated only.

PERC H740P RAID controller

The onboard Dell PERC H740P governs all drive connectivity through the four 3.5-inch SATA bays. It determines which RAID levels and drive types are available, so confirm your storage topology matches this controller before purchase.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 750 W power supply run when the Xeon Gold 6226R is under full load all day?

The dual 750 W supplies share the load, keeping each unit cooler and quieter than a single supply would be; the 16-core Xeon at 2.9 GHz draws its rated power within the supply's design envelope.

Which drives and caddies do I need to populate the four 3.5-inch bays on this R640?

The chassis accepts four 3.5-inch SATA drives; the PERC H740P controller manages them, so you only need standard 3.5-inch SATA drives and the Dell drive carriers that fit the 4LFF backplane.

Will my existing DDR4 ECC registered modules work alongside the 16 GB already installed?

Yes, the system uses DDR4 ECC registered memory; any compatible DDR4 ECC RDIMMs can be added up to the 7.68 TB maximum across the available DIMM slots.
