Purpose-Built Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting. It arrives configured with dual Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors and 256GB of DDR4 memory to support multiple services and virtual machines simultaneously.

Core Count Determines Fit

This unit delivers 48 total cores across two installed CPUs, each running at 2.1GHz with 20 cores per processor. The maximum supported configuration is two processors, so the core count is fixed at this level and cannot be expanded further within this chassis.

Rack-Ready With Controller

The server includes H730P storage controller, rack rails and front bezel for immediate rack integration. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays are provided without drives installed, allowing selection of preferred capacity and type. Buyers needing more than eight internal drive bays or a different controller will need another platform.
