DELL PowerEdge R640 8B SFF rack server 2x Xeon Platinum 8160 2.1GHz 256GB DDR4 H730P X550-T4 8x 1.2TB SAS

Rack server for virtualization workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R640 8B SFF is a rackmount server system built for business workloads such as file storage, virtualization, databases, backups and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 48 cores at 2.10GHz each for dependable performance. 256GB DDR4 memory supports multiple services, virtual machines and data-heavy business applications.

Suited for dense virtualization; not for GPU compute

This configuration suits organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a 1U rack form factor for virtualised environments. Buyers who require dedicated GPU acceleration for AI training, rendering or high-performance computing should look at platforms with PCIe GPU support. The integrated graphics only cover basic display output.

Fits standard racks with SAS storage ready

The server occupies a single rack unit and provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 1.2TB 10K SAS drives connected through an H730P storage controller. An X550-T4 quad-port 10GbE adapter handles network connectivity. DDR4 memory slots remain available up to the 3TB maximum for future expansion. Power supplies and rails are required to complete the installation.
