Dense compute platform

The Dell PowerEdge R650 is a 1U rack server built for enterprise workloads that demand high core density and large memory capacity in minimal rack space. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors and 512GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory ready for immediate deployment.

Virtualisation and database targets

This configuration suits teams running dense virtualisation clusters, in-memory databases or private cloud nodes that benefit from 512GB of RAM and ten 600GB SAS drives behind a PERC H755 controller. Buyers who need NVMe boot devices or GPU acceleration should evaluate other chassis options.

Ten 600GB SAS drives on H755

The storage subsystem provides ten 2.5-inch 600GB 10K SAS disks connected to a PERC H755 RAID controller with 8GB NV cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This layout fixes usable capacity and IOPS before the server is racked.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the R650 is operating correctly after racking it and powering on the 2x 1400W PSUs?

Watch the front LCD for a solid green system-health indicator and log into iDRAC9 Enterprise via its dedicated network port to confirm both Xeon Silver 4310 CPUs, all 16 DIMMs, the H755 controller with 8GB NV cache, and all 10 SAS drives report “OK” status.

What ships inside the 1U chassis and which items must be sourced separately?

The box contains the R650 with 2x Xeon Silver 4310 processors, 512GB DDR4 (16x 32GB), H755 RAID card, 10x 600GB 10K SAS drives, Broadcom 5720 quad-port 1GbE OCP 3.0 card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, 2x 1400W platinum PSUs, ReadyRails sliding rails and front bezel. OS licences, additional drives or GPU cards are not included.

Which drive-count or controller variant of the R650 should I select for a 10-bay SAS array with hardware RAID?

Choose the 10-bay 2.5” configuration paired with the PERC H755 controller; it supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 across all ten 600GB SAS drives and provides 8GB non-volatile cache backed by a battery.
