DELL PowerEdge R640 4LFF 1x Xeon Platinum 8260L 128GB DDR4 rack server

Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF Server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server configured with a single Intel Xeon Platinum 8260L processor running at 2.4GHz. The CPU provides 24 cores and 35.75MB of cache. It includes 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H740P RAID controller. The 4LFF chassis supports up to four 3.5-inch SATA drives, though no drives are installed. Integrated graphics and an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence handle remote management.

Suited for memory-heavy workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need high core counts and large memory capacity in a compact 1U form factor. The 128GB of DDR4 and 24-core processor handle virtualisation, database or compute tasks well. The single CPU leaves one socket free for a future upgrade to two processors. Buyers who require installed storage, a second processor from day one or a GPU for acceleration should look at a different configuration.

128GB DDR4 ECC registered memory

The installed memory is 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs, which provides error correction for data integrity. The system board supports a maximum of 7.68TB when fully populated with supported modules. This specific capacity and memory type determine whether the server matches the workload requirements for capacity and reliability.
