Dell PowerEdge R640 4LFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rack server with four 3.5-inch drive bays. It ships with one Intel Xeon Platinum 8260L processor running at 2.4GHz, providing 24 cores and 35.75MB cache. The system includes 16GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H740P RAID controller. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote management.

Suits dense storage workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need a compact rack server with four large-form-factor bays for high-capacity SATA drives. It is not for buyers who want small-form-factor density beyond four bays, who require GPU acceleration, or who need more than one processor installed today. The single CPU and 16GB RAM may limit heavy virtualization.

Four 3.5-inch drive bays

The chassis supports exactly four 3.5-inch drives, which determines total raw storage capacity. No drives are installed, so you must supply SATA HDDs or SSDs. The PERC H740P controller manages RAID levels for those bays. Expanding beyond four drives requires a different chassis.

Questions about this item

What memory type and capacity must I already have to add to the 16GB DDR4 installed in this R640?

The system uses DDR4 ECC Registered modules and supports up to 7.68TB total capacity across its memory slots.

Will my existing 3.5-inch SATA drives work with the PERC H740P controller in the four-bay chassis?

Yes, the controller manages SATA drives in the four 3.5-inch bays and provides hardware RAID for those disks.

How can I confirm the Xeon Platinum 8260L is running at its 2.4GHz base speed after installation?

Check the processor frequency in the iDRAC9 Enterprise dashboard or the system BIOS; both report the live CPU clock speed.
