Here the Dell PowerEdge R640 1U rack server comes with a pair of Intel Xeon Gold 5218 chips (2.30GHz, 16 cores each) alongside 128GB of DDR4 RAM. It carries two 1.92TB SATA SSDs for 3.84TB of raw capacity; six bays of the 8-bay 2.5-inch chassis are still free.
Supporting hardware includes PERC H740P hardware RAID (8GB cache), dual-port 10GbE RJ45 networking (Intel X550) and dual 750W power supplies. You also get an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence for out-of-band management and a rack rail kit.
This is the kind of build that suits database servers and virtualisation hosts where storage latency, not capacity, sets the pace. The two drives pair naturally as a RAID 1 mirror.
Compared with a hard-disk build of the same R640, this all-flash configuration trades raw capacity for much lower storage latency. That is twice the memory of a lighter R640 build, which matters most for virtual machines and caching.
Certified refurbished condition: the server is inspected, bench-tested and data-wiped in Johannesburg.
