Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server fitted with two Xeon Platinum 8268 processors running at 2.9 GHz, each providing 24 cores. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H740P RAID controller, but no drives are installed in the four 3.5-inch bays.

Suited for memory-heavy workloads.

This configuration suits virtualization hosts, in-memory databases, and compute clusters that benefit from high core counts and large RAM capacity. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, support for storage interfaces not listed here, or more than four drive bays should consider a different platform.

Four 3.5-inch drive bays define storage capacity

The chassis accepts up to four 3.5-inch SATA drives connected to the PERC H740P controller, so the maximum internal raw capacity is determined by the drives you choose to install.
