Dual Xeon Platinum 8268 server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8268 processors. Each CPU delivers 14 cores at 2.9GHz for a total of 48 cores. It ships with 128GB of DDR4 memory installed and supports up to 3TB. The platform targets virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting workloads.

Eight-bay SFF storage with H730P

The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 1.2TB 10K SAS hard drives running at 12Gb/s. An integrated H730P storage controller manages the array and simplifies ongoing administration. Front-panel LEDs indicate power, Ethernet and USB status. The system uses an LGA3647 socket design and includes an X710 network adapter for connectivity.

Sustained multi-threaded throughput

Dual 14-core processors maintain consistent performance across parallel virtual machines and database threads under continuous load. The 128GB DDR4 capacity keeps large working sets in memory to reduce paging during extended operations. SAS drives and the H730P controller deliver steady IOPS for write-intensive backup and logging tasks without thermal throttling in the 1U form factor.
