Dell PowerEdge R640 48-core virtualization server

This Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 48 total cores at 2.1 GHz, supported by 128 GB of DDR4 memory. An H730P storage controller manages eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives in 2.5-inch bays.

Suits consolidation and multi-service workloads

The 48-core configuration and 128 GB DDR4 suit organisations running many virtual machines, heavy database instances or mixed application tiers on a single chassis. Buyers who need GPU-accelerated compute, larger local storage capacity or more than two processor sockets should look at different platforms.

H730P RAID controller with eight 600 GB SAS drives

The included H730P controller handles the eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives, providing hardware RAID for operating systems, applications and virtual machines. This storage subsystem determines whether the server meets your capacity and performance requirements for business data.

Questions about this item

Will the two Xeon Platinum 8160 processors at 2.1GHz fit into my existing LGA3647 motherboard?

Each of the two installed Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs uses the LGA3647 socket and runs at 2.1GHz with 20 cores, so they match any board built for that socket.

How can I confirm the H730P controller and X710 network adapter are operating correctly after installation?

The server includes front-panel LEDs for power, Ethernet and USB activity; the H730P controller and X710 adapter report status through those indicators and the BIOS health screens.

Which drives and accessories ship with the 8-bay 2.5-inch chassis and what must I add?

The unit arrives with eight 600GB 10K SAS drives, the H730P RAID controller, dual Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs and 128GB DDR4 memory; no operating system is included.
