2U Rackmount Virtualization Server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 2U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage and application hosting. It ships with 256GB of DDR4 memory installed and supports up to 3TB total capacity. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays for flexible storage configuration. An integrated GPU handles basic display output.

Dual Xeon Gold 6154 Configuration

This system suits organizations consolidating multiple virtual machines or running memory-intensive business applications. The dual-processor design delivers 36 total cores at 3.0GHz for parallel workloads. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for compute tasks or who require a pre-installed operating system should evaluate other options. Storage drives must be purchased separately.

H730P RAID Controller Included

The integrated H730P storage controller manages the eight drive bays with hardware RAID support. This controller determines which drive types and RAID levels are available for your deployment. Rails and front bezel are included for immediate rack installation. The server weighs 60 units and operates without an installed operating system.
