Refurbished · Tested
Dell PowerEdge R640 1U rack server with dual Xeon Gold 6138, 96 GB RAM, H730 RAID and SSD plus SAS storage.
This refurbished Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 14th generation, two-socket 1U rack server on the Intel Xeon Scalable platform, released in 2017. This unit has 2 x Intel Xeon Gold 6138 processors (20 cores each, 40 cores and 80 threads in total), 96 GB of DDR4 memory and a Dell PERC H730 RAID controller. Storage is 2 x 480 GB SSD for the operating system and active data, plus 1.2 TB of SAS capacity for general files. It suits buyers in Doha and across Qatar who need dense compute in one rack unit: virtualisation hosts, application servers and file services where rack space is limited. Many buyers add an R640 to an existing PowerEdge estate so that management tools, drive carriers and spares stay common.
Full configuration
The first rows are what is fitted to this server. The rest are platform specifications for the R640, a 14th generation PowerEdge, and show how far the chassis can be taken.
What this configuration suits
Compare the workload you have in mind against the fitted components.
80 threads and 96 GB of memory run a moderate number of general-purpose virtual machines comfortably.
Application and web servers, domain services and file services, with the SSD pair holding the operating system and active data.
Memory is the first limit for dense virtualisation or large databases, so plan to add DIMMs before loading the host heavily.
The 1U chassis limits local storage, so large archives sit better on a 2U server or shared storage.
Upgrade paths
- Memory: 24 DIMM slots in total, with headroom up to 3 TB using LRDIMMs. Add DIMMs in matched sets across both processors.
- Processors: the platform accepts Xeon Scalable models up to 28 cores per socket. 2nd generation parts need a current BIOS.
- Storage: free bays depend on the chassis variant and take further SAS or SATA drives under the H730.
- Expansion: up to 3 PCIe 3.0 slots for faster network or HBA cards.
Compatibility
The R640 takes Dell 14th generation drive carriers. Carriers from earlier generations do not fit. Memory must be DDR4 registered or load-reduced modules, and RDIMMs and LRDIMMs cannot be mixed in one server. Replacement drives should be SAS or SATA to work with the H730, and each new drive must be added to an array or set as non-RAID in the controller before use.
| Component | Fits this server |
|---|---|
| Memory | DDR4 RDIMM or LRDIMM |
| Drives | SAS or SATA, in 14th generation carriers |
| Rails | Dell 1U rails 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.
