DELL PowerEdge R650 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 5317 3.0GHz 12C 64GB DDR4 10x 600GB SAS H755 57412 2x 1400W

DELL PowerEdge R650 1U Server

The DELL PowerEdge R650 is a 1U rack server system built for dense enterprise deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors, each running at 3.0GHz with a 3.6GHz turbo frequency and 12 cores per processor. The system includes 64GB of DDR4 2933MHz registered ECC memory configured as four 16GB modules. A PERC H755 RAID controller with 8GB NV cache and battery backup manages the storage subsystem.

Ideal for virtualisation and database workloads

This configuration suits organisations that need high compute density in a single rack unit with redundant 1400W platinum power supplies. The ten 600GB 10K SAS drives and dual-port 10GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 networking support performance-focused applications. Buyers who require larger drive capacities, NVMe storage tiers, or GPU acceleration should evaluate alternative platforms that provide those specific capabilities.

PERC H755 RAID controller with 8GB cache

The Dell PERC H755 PCIe RAID controller is the key specification that determines storage compatibility and data protection features. It supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the ten installed 2.5-inch SAS drives. The 8GB non-volatile cache with battery backup preserves write data during unexpected power loss, a critical feature for database integrity and transaction-heavy workloads.
