Ready-to-rack server with dual Xeon Silver 4216 CPUs

The Dell PowerEdge R640 arrives as a 1U rack-mount chassis populated with two Intel Xeon Silver 4216 processors running at 2.1GHz and 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. A PERC H740P RAID controller and dual 750W power supplies are installed, while the four 3.5-inch drive bays ship empty for you to populate with SATA drives. iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management is licensed and active.

Suits teams that need a configured compute node now

This unit targets IT groups wanting a tested, firmware-current R640 with high core count and large memory capacity for virtualization, database or HPC tasks. Buyers who need installed storage, GPU acceleration, or a different drive-bay count should look at other configurations because the chassis holds only four 3.5-inch bays and the integrated graphics provide no compute offload.

Four 3.5-inch bays define the storage limit

The 4LFF chassis accepts up to four SATA hard drives or SSDs connected to the PERC H740P controller, so total raw capacity is capped by the number and size of drives you install. Maximum supported system memory reaches 7.68TB across 24 DIMM slots, but the shipping configuration provides 384GB.

Questions about this item

How much power do the two 750 W supplies draw when this R640 runs continuously?

The system ships with two 750 W power supplies; actual draw depends on workload and installed drives.

Which drive trays or caddies must I supply to populate the four 3.5" bays?

The chassis has four 3.5" bays and no drives are installed; you will need compatible Dell 3.5" drive carriers.

Can the PERC H740P controller manage SATA drives from an older PowerEdge?

The H740P supports SATA drives; older SATA disks will work if they match the 3.5" form factor.
