Dell PowerEdge R640 10SFF refurbished server with 2 x Xeon Gold 6138, 32 GB DDR4 and 2.4 TB SAS for virtualisation.
This is a refurbished Dell PowerEdge R640, stocked under SKU SRV-DELL-R640-6138x2-32GB-2.4TB-10SFF. The R640 is Dell's 1U, two-socket rack server from the 14th generation PowerEdge line, built on the Intel Xeon Scalable platform. This unit is the 10SFF chassis, with ten 2.5 inch hot-plug bays at the front. It is fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 6138 processors (20 cores each, 40 cores in total), 32 GB of DDR4 ECC RDIMM memory and two 1.2 TB 10K SAS hard drives, giving 2.4 TB raw. The configuration puts most of its value in the processors, so it suits buyers who want high core counts in 1U and plan to add memory and drives to match their workload. IT teams in Doha and across Qatar use it for virtualisation hosts, application servers and consolidation projects where rack space is limited.

The first rows are what this unit is fitted with. The remaining rows are R640 platform specifications, which set the limits for any later upgrade. The Gold 6138 is a first generation Xeon Scalable part, so memory runs at up to 2666 MT/s.
What this configuration suits
Compare the workload you have in mind against the fitted components.
Forty cores in 1U make this a good host for VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox, where many small virtual machines share processor time. It also suits build servers, web and application tiers, and other compute-bound roles.
For virtualisation, most buyers add memory before deployment, since 32 GB across 40 cores leaves little per virtual machine.
The two 10K SAS drives suit a mirrored operating system or hypervisor volume. For databases or busy shared storage, add SSDs in the free bays.
Upgrade paths
- Memory: 24 DIMM slots in total, so DDR4 ECC RDIMMs can be added in matched sets across both processors.
- Storage: 8 of the 10 front bays are free for 2.5 inch SAS or SATA drives or SSDs.
- Processors: both sockets are populated; higher-core Xeon Scalable parts, including second generation models with current BIOS, are the CPU ceiling.
- Network and I/O: the network daughter card and PCIe risers allow 10 GbE or 25 GbE and extra adapters.
Compatibility
Memory must be DDR4 ECC registered or load-reduced modules. Do not mix RDIMM and LRDIMM in one server, and populate both processors' channels evenly for full bandwidth. Drives fit Dell 2.5 inch hot-plug carriers for 14th generation PowerEdge servers, which differ from older carriers. Power supplies must be a matched pair of the same wattage. Rails must be the 1U kits made for the R640.

Why buy refurbished
Enterprise hardware, tested in Doha, at a fraction of the price of new
Every unit we sell has already proven itself in a data centre. We test it again, grade it, and back it with a warranty before it leaves our stock.
Tested before it ships
POST, burn-in, memory and power-supply checks on every unit. Anything that fails is repaired or pulled from stock, not sold.
Same performance, lower cost
A Xeon runs the same workloads whether it is new or two years old. Spend the difference on more CPUs, memory or storage.
In stock, not on order
New enterprise hardware can take weeks or months to arrive. Ours is on the shelf in Doha and delivered across Qatar within a day.
Warranty and local support
Every unit is covered. Installation, configuration and hardware support are handled by our own team in Qatar, not a call centre abroad.
