1U dual-processor server for dense enterprise

The Dell PowerEdge R650 packs two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 12-core processors running at 3.0 GHz with 3.6 GHz turbo into a single rack unit. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4-2933 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. The configuration targets virtualization hosts, database clusters and private-cloud nodes that need high core counts in minimal space.

PERC H755 RAID with 8 GB NV cache and ten SATA SSDs

A Dell PERC H755 controller manages the ten 1.92 TB SATA solid-state drives, supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. The 8 GB non-volatile cache with battery backup protects in-flight writes during power events. Dual 1400 W platinum hot-swap power supplies and included rails with bezel complete the ready-to-rack package.

256 GB installed with headroom to 2 TB DDR4

The system populates eight of thirty-two DIMM slots, leaving twenty-four slots free for expansion up to the 2 TB platform maximum. Ten 2.5-inch drive bays are fully occupied by the 1.92 TB SSDs, so additional internal capacity requires external storage. Quad-port 1 GbE OCP 3.0 networking and iDRAC9 Enterprise provide management bandwidth without consuming PCIe slots.

Questions about this item

How much DDR4 memory can the R650 hold before I hit the ceiling?

The server supports up to 2 TB of DDR4 across 32 DIMM slots running at 3200 MT/s.

What are the thermal and power characteristics of the dual 1400 W platinum power supplies under continuous load?

Two hot-swap 1400 W platinum supplies provide redundant power with high efficiency to reduce heat output during all-day operation.

Which drive interface and form factor do the ten installed 1.92 TB SSDs use so I can match spares?

The ten installed drives are 2.5-inch SATA 6 Gb/s solid-state drives.
