DELL PowerEdge R640 4LFF 2x Xeon Bronze 3104 384GB DDR4 No Drive

Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server fitted with two Intel Xeon Bronze 3104 processors running at 1.7GHz. It ships with 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H740P RAID controller. The chassis supports up to four 3.5-inch SATA drive bays and includes a 10GbE 562T dual-port adapter. Dual 750W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are installed.

Suited for memory-heavy workloads.

This configuration targets buyers who need large memory capacity for virtualisation, databases or in-memory analytics within a single-rack-unit footprint. The integrated graphics and lack of GPU expansion slots make it unsuitable for workloads requiring hardware acceleration. The four-bay LFF chassis limits raw storage density compared to SFF alternatives, and the Bronze-class CPUs do not serve compute-intensive tasks.

Four 3.5-inch drive bays define storage scope

The R640 4LFF chassis accepts a maximum of four 3.5-inch SATA drives attached to the PERC H740P controller. No drives are installed, so the buyer must supply compatible SATA HDDs or SSDs. This bay count and form factor set the hard limit for internal capacity and RAID options; configurations requiring more than four drives or 2.5-inch bays need a different chassis.
