Dell PowerEdge R650 server

The Dell PowerEdge R650 is a 1U rack server built for dense enterprise workloads. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6330 processors deliver 28 cores each at 2.0 GHz with 3.1 GHz turbo. The system ships with 128 GB of DDR4 memory across eight 16 GB modules. Ten 600 GB SAS hard drives connect through a PERC H755 RAID controller.

Who this fits and who it doesn't

This server suits organisations running virtualisation, databases or private-cloud stacks that need high core counts in a single rack unit. The 10-bay 2.5-inch chassis supports SAS and SATA drives with RAID flexibility. Buyers who need more than two processors or NVMe-only storage should evaluate other platforms. The 1400 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise simplify deployment.

Deciding specification

The PERC H755 controller with 8 GB NV cache determines storage performance and RAID options. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the ten installed drives. This controller choice fixes the usable capacity, redundancy level and rebuild speed for the array.

Questions about this item

How should I choose between the available memory and drive configurations for this R650?

The unit ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory in eight 16 GB modules and ten 600 GB 10 K SAS 12 Gb/s 2.5-inch drives, so no alternative capacity or speed options are offered on this SKU.

What does the 2.0 GHz base and 3.1 GHz turbo frequency of the Xeon Gold 6330 mean for actual workloads?

Each of the two processors provides 28 cores running at 2.0 GHz base with a 3.1 GHz turbo boost, delivering high multi-threaded throughput for virtualization, databases and dense cloud deployments in a 1U form factor.

How does the PERC H755 controller and 12 Gb/s SAS interface limit real-world drive performance?

The H755 RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 over a 12 Gb/s SAS backplane, capping each 600 GB 10 K drive to the interface’s maximum sustained transfer rate.
