Dell PowerEdge R640 28-core server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualisation, databases and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6132 processors deliver 28 total cores at 2.60 GHz with 128 GB of DDR4 memory installed.

Check CPU socket and memory generation before

The system uses dual LGA3647 sockets and DDR4 memory only. Verify that your rack provides standard 1U spacing and that any replacement processors match the LGA3647 package. Drive trays accept 2.5-inch devices, so 3.5-inch drives will not fit.

H730P controller, rails and bezel included

A PERC H730P storage controller is fitted, providing hardware RAID for the eight drive bays. Rack rails and the front bezel are supplied, so the server can be mounted immediately. No operating system or storage drives are included, allowing you to select the software and capacity you need.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell PowerEdge R640 come with any 2.5-inch drives or must I buy them separately?

The server includes eight 2.5-inch drive trays but no storage drives; you select and purchase the capacity and drive type that suit your workload.

Should I choose the 128 GB DDR4 configuration or plan to expand toward the 3 TB maximum?

The system ships with 128 GB DDR4 installed across two Xeon Gold 6132 processors; you can add modules later up to the 3 TB limit if your virtualization or database needs grow.

What does the 28-core total mean for virtualization density on this R640?

Two Xeon Gold 6132 CPUs provide 28 cores at 2.6 GHz, giving a solid baseline for running multiple virtual machines or container workloads simultaneously.
