Server configuration

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack-mount server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214R processors running at 2.4 GHz. Each CPU provides 12 cores and 16.5 MB of cache, delivering 24 threads for multi-threaded workloads. The system includes 32 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H740P RAID controller. No drives are installed, leaving the four 3.5-inch SATA bays available for custom storage.

Target workloads

This chassis suits environments that need dense compute in a single rack unit with flexible 3.5-inch drive capacity. The dual-socket design supports up to 7.68 TB of DDR4 memory for virtualisation or database tasks. Buyers who require more than four drive bays, discrete GPU acceleration, or a different drive form factor should evaluate other platforms.

Deciding specification

The four 3.5-inch SATA bays paired with the PERC H740P controller determine how much local storage can be configured. With no drives included, the buyer selects capacity and redundancy to match the application. This bay count and controller combination is the primary constraint when planning the deployment.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the dual Xeon Silver 4214R processors are recognised and running at 2.4 GHz after installation?

Enter the BIOS or iDRAC9 interface on first boot; the system inventory will show two CPUs each reporting 12 cores at 2.4 GHz.

Which components ship inside the chassis and which items such as drives or rails must be ordered separately?

The unit includes two Xeon Silver 4214R CPUs, 32 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory in two 16 GB modules, a PERC H740P RAID controller, a 10 GbE 2-port 562T adapter, and dual 750 W power supplies; 3.5" drives and rail kit are not included.

Should I choose the 4-bay 3.5" LFF chassis or a different bay count for my storage density needs?

This configuration provides four 3.5" hot-plug bays; select it when you need high-capacity SATA drives in a 1U rack form factor.
