Dell PowerEdge R640 dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases and application hosting. It suits organisations that need a compact, dual-processor platform ready for rack deployment.

Build quality and daily connectivity

Front status LEDs show power, Ethernet and USB activity at a glance. Ten 2.5-inch drive bays allow dense storage configurations while the included front bezel gives a clean rack appearance. The H740P storage controller manages the installed drives for reliable data handling.

96 GB DDR4 memory capacity

Ninety-six gigabytes of DDR4 memory are installed, supporting multiple virtual machines and data-intensive applications. Buyers who need the full three-terabyte maximum will have to add modules. Workers requiring GPU acceleration should look elsewhere because only integrated graphics are present.

Questions about this item

What RAID controller is installed in the PowerEdge R640?

The server includes a Dell PERC H740P hardware RAID controller with 8 GB of non-volatile cache for managing the drive array.

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the R640 SFF chassis provide?

The front of the 1U rackmount chassis has ten 2.5-inch bays; five are populated with 1 TB SSDs and five remain open for expansion.

What steps are required to get the server running after it arrives?

Technicians pre-configure the BIOS, build the RAID array, update drivers and install the operating system if ordered; you only need to rack the unit, connect power and network, then power it on.
