DELL PowerEdge R650 rack server 2× Xeon Gold 6338 2.0GHz 32-core 64GB DDR4 H755 10× 1.8TB SAS

PowerEdge R650 1U dual Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R650 is a 1U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 6338 processors running at 2.0GHz with a 3.2GHz turbo. Each CPU provides 32 cores for a total of 64 cores across the system. It ships with 64GB of DDR4 3200MHz registered ECC memory in a four-module configuration. The chassis includes ten 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 1.8TB 10K SAS drives.

Virtualisation hosts and database nodes needing

This server suits teams running virtualisation clusters, dense private clouds or database workloads that benefit from high core counts in a single rack unit. The PERC H755 controller with 8GB NV cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible data protection. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, larger memory footprints at purchase or NVMe boot drives should evaluate other configurations.

18TB raw SAS storage with RAID headroom

The ten 1.8TB drives deliver 18TB of raw capacity and sustain high random IOPS for transactional workloads. RAID 6 or 60 leaves ample usable space while tolerating two simultaneous drive failures. Memory scales to 2TB across 32 DIMM slots for future expansion. The dual 1400W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise management complete a platform ready for production deployment.
