Server identity

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6338 processors and 128GB of DDR4 memory. It provides ten 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 600GB SAS hard drives and a PERC H745 RAID controller. Dual 1400W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise management are included.

Fit and limits

This server suits organisations that need dense compute and internal storage in a single rack unit. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or NVMe-only storage should evaluate other platforms. The fixed 10-bay 2.5-inch chassis also limits expansion for workloads demanding larger drive counts or 3.5-inch form factors.

Deciding specification

The PERC H745 controller with 4GB non-volatile cache determines the RAID levels available and the performance ceiling for the ten SAS drives. Confirm that the supported RAID modes and cache protection match the application's data-protection requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

What DDR4 memory speed and form factor must already be present in the chassis to reach the installed 128 GB?

The server uses DDR4 3200 MHz registered ECC DIMMs; the 128 GB ships as eight 16 GB modules occupying eight of the sixteen available slots.

Will the PERC H745 RAID controller recognise the existing 600 GB 10 K SAS drives if I move them from an older 12 Gb/s backplane?

Yes, the H745 supports 12 Gb/s SAS and the ten 600 GB 10 K drives are connected through that interface, so they will be detected and can be configured in RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60.

How can I confirm the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management is active after the server posts?

During boot the iDRAC9 Enterprise IP address appears on the LCD panel; you can also ping that address or open the web interface to verify the Lifecycle Controller version and sensor readings.
