1U rack server for virtualization and databases

This 1U Dell PowerEdge R640 ships with two Xeon Gold 6154 processors, each running at 3.0 GHz with 22 cores for 36 total cores. The 512 GB of DDR4 memory supports dense virtualization, database, and application hosting workloads. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays come populated with new 1 TB SATA SSDs.

H730P controller and CX422A networking

The integrated H730P storage controller manages the eight SATA SSDs and simplifies array setup and ongoing management. Front-panel LEDs show power, Ethernet, and USB status for quick health checks. A CX422A network adapter provides additional connectivity for data-intensive tasks.

Verify rack depth and power infrastructure

Confirm your rack can accommodate a 1U chassis and that power distribution meets the server’s requirements. The system ships without an operating system, so plan for OS installation and licensing. Maximum memory capacity is 3 TB if future expansion is needed.

Questions about this item

Does the H730P controller limit the eight SATA SSDs to SATA speeds?

Yes, the H730P connects the eight 2.5-inch SATA SSDs through the SATA interface, so each drive runs at SATA throughput.

What physical space does the R640 need in a rack?

The R640 is a rackmount server that occupies one rack unit and accepts eight 2.5-inch drives in its front bays.

How is the H730P controller prepared before the server ships?

Technicians configure the controller and build the storage array as part of the pre-shipment setup process.
