Purpose-built rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R640 SFF is a 1U rackmount server system designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, file storage, backups and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6136 processors running at 3.00GHz with 12 cores each deliver dependable multi-threaded performance for demanding data tasks. 96GB of DDR4 memory supports multiple concurrent services and virtual machines.

Build and connectivity

The chassis provides 10 expansion bays accepting 2.5-inch drives, with six 1TB SSDs installed and managed by an H740P storage controller. A front bezel is included for a complete rack-ready appearance. Front-facing LEDs indicate power, Ethernet and USB status for quick at-a-glance monitoring. The unit weighs 60 units.

Compatibility check

This server ships without an operating system, so you must supply and install your preferred hypervisor or OS. Verify that your rack provides adequate depth and airflow for a 1U form factor and that your power distribution matches the dual-processor configuration. Ensure your storage workflow aligns with the installed H740P controller capabilities and the remaining four drive bays for future expansion.

Questions about this item

What drive interface does the H740P controller use and what speed does it cap at?

The H740P connects through the server PCIe bus and manages the six 1 TB SSDs in the 10-bay 2.5-inch front panel.

What rail kit is required to mount the 60 kg 1U chassis in a 4-post rack?

Dell ReadyRails sliding or static rails designed for the PowerEdge R640 are needed to secure the 60 kg unit.

How are the Xeon Gold 6136 processors installed and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs are pre-installed in the dual-socket board; the step often missed is applying the correct torque sequence when reseating a heatsink.
