Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server system built for dense compute workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors running at 2.1 GHz and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis supports up to four 3.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H740P RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Suited for virtualisation and database clusters

Organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit will benefit from this configuration. Buyers who require installed storage drives or GPU acceleration should look elsewhere, as the unit ships without drives and uses integrated graphics only. The dual 750 W power supplies support redundant operation for the components listed.

Dual Xeon Platinum 8160 at 2.1 GHz

The two installed processors define the performance ceiling for every workload on this server. Each CPU delivers 24 cores and 33 MB of cache at a base frequency of 2.1 GHz. Memory can scale to 7.68 TB of DDR4 when the budget and application demand it.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the PERC H740P RAID controller and iDRAC9 Enterprise are active after installation?

During boot, watch for the PERC H740P BIOS prompt and press the indicated key to verify the controller sees the backplane. Then open iDRAC9 via its network address and confirm the Enterprise licence shows licensed features such as virtual console and remote media.

What components are included and which must be sourced separately?

The chassis ships with two Xeon Platinum 8160 processors, 128 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, a PERC H740P RAID controller, a dual-port 10 GbE 562T adapter, two 750 W power supplies and rails on request. No 3.5" drives are installed; they must be purchased separately.

Which drive-bay version should I choose for 3.5" SATA drives?

Select the 4LFF configuration, which provides four 3.5" hot-plug bays wired to the PERC H740P controller for SATA drives. The alternative small-form-factor chassis only accepts 2.5" drives and is not compatible with 3.5" media.
