Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server with a 4-bay 3.5-inch chassis. It arrives with one Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processor running at 2.3 GHz, 16 cores and 22 MB cache, plus 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. A PERC H740P RAID controller and a dual-port 10 GbE 562T adapter are installed. Two 750 W power supplies provide redundancy.

Suits single-socket deployments needing 3.5-inch

This configuration fits workloads that run on one Xeon Gold 5218 and want room for up to four large-form-factor SATA drives. The second CPU socket is empty, so buyers who need two processors populated from day one should choose a different build. The integrated GPU and iDRAC9 Enterprise licence cover basic display and remote management without extra licences.

One Xeon Gold 5218 at 2.3 GHz with 64 GB DDR4

The installed processor is a 16-core Xeon Gold 5218 at 2.3 GHz paired with 64 GB of DDR4 memory. The board supports a second identical processor and up to 7.68 TB of total RAM. If the core count, clock speed or single-socket memory capacity does not match the target workload, the server will not meet requirements.
