1U Dual-Socket Rack Server
The Dell PowerEdge R650 is a 1U rackmount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors, each running at 3.0 GHz with 12 cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules. The unit includes a PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache and battery backup.
Suited for dense virtualisation
This configuration fits organisations running virtualised workloads, database clusters or private cloud deployments that benefit from high core counts and fast SAS storage in a single rack unit. Buyers who need NVMe boot drives, GPU acceleration or more than ten drive bays should evaluate other platforms.
Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives with H755 RAID
Storage is provided by ten 2.5-inch 600 GB 10 000 RPM SAS hard drives connected to the H755 controller, which supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. The array delivers consistent throughput for mixed read-write workloads and the hot-swap bays allow drive replacement without downtime.

Questions about this item
What PCIe generation does the PERC H755 RAID controller use, and what throughput limit does that impose?
The PERC H755 is a PCIe Gen4 controller, so its eight-lane link caps at roughly 16 GB/s of raw bandwidth.
What physical rails and rack dimensions does the R650 need to mount in a cabinet?
The server includes Dell ReadyRails sliding rails and a front bezel; its 1U height fits standard four-post racks, and the 2.5-inch drive bays are front-accessible.
In what order should the CPUs, memory and RAID controller be installed to avoid a common POST failure?
Install both Xeon Gold 5317 processors first, then populate all eight DDR4 DIMM slots evenly across the memory channels, and finally seat the PERC H755 in the designated PCIe slot so the BIOS detects the RAID volume on first boot.
