DELL PowerEdge R640 8B SFF 28-Core rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6132 2.6GHz 256GB DDR4 H730P X550-T4 8x 600GB SAS

Dell PowerEdge R640 8-bay SFF rack server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage, and application hosting. It arrives new with dual Intel Xeon Gold 6132 processors providing 28 total cores at 2.60 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 memory. An integrated H730P storage controller manages eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives installed in the 2.5-inch front bays.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense compute

The dual-socket configuration and 256 GB DDR4 memory support multiple virtual machines and data-heavy applications. The eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis limits total drive count, so buyers who need more storage bays or GPU acceleration should evaluate alternative platforms. Workloads requiring larger memory footprints can expand up to the 3 TB maximum capacity.

28-core dual Xeon Gold 6132 at 2.60 GHz

Two Intel Xeon Gold 6132 CPUs each deliver 14 cores running at 2.60 GHz on the LGA3647 socket, giving 28 cores total for parallel workloads. This core count and clock speed determine the server's throughput for virtualization, database, and application hosting tasks. Memory type is DDR4 with a 3 TB ceiling for future expansion.
