Built for virtualization and databases

The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, backups, and application hosting. Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors at 3.20GHz provide dependable performance for multi-threaded services and data-intensive applications. It ships ready to integrate into standard rack environments.

96GB DDR4 and 6TB SSD capacity

Installed 96GB DDR4 memory supports multiple virtual machines and memory-heavy business applications simultaneously, with headroom to expand up to 3TB. Six 1TB SSDs deliver 6TB of solid-state storage for operating systems, virtual machines, and business data. The H740P storage controller simplifies array configuration and daily management tasks.

Upgrades from single-socket or HDD platforms

This configuration replaces single-processor servers or systems still running mechanical drives, removing compute and I/O bottlenecks for consolidated workloads. The dual-socket design and all-flash storage make the jump worthwhile when virtual machine density or database responsiveness outgrows earlier hardware. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or more than ten 2.5-inch drive bays should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR4 RDIMMs add to the 96 GB already installed in the R640?

Yes, the system uses DDR4 memory and supports up to 3 TB total capacity, so additional DDR4 modules can expand the 96 GB configuration.

How can I verify the H740P controller and both Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs are recognised after first boot?

Enter the BIOS or iDRAC interface; both processors should appear with 8 cores each at 3.20 GHz and the H740P should list the 6 x 1 TB SSDs in a configured array.

Which drive carriers come with the 10-bay 2.5" chassis and do I need extra caddies for the six SSDs?

The 10 x 2.5" bay chassis ships with carriers installed; the six 1 TB SSDs are already mounted in those carriers so no additional caddies are required.
