Dell PowerEdge R650xs 1U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server built for dense data centre deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors running at 3.0 GHz with 3.6 GHz turbo. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across four modules.

Suited for virtualisation and cloud workloads

This configuration suits teams running virtualised workloads, cloud infrastructure or high-performance computing in a single rack unit. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or larger local storage capacity should evaluate other platforms.

10-bay 2.5-inch front storage with PERC H745

The chassis provides ten 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 960 GB SATA SSDs behind a PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache. This layout determines how many drives you can install and which RAID levels are available.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 1U chassis get with two Xeon Gold 5317 CPUs and ten 960GB SSDs running continuously?

The 1U rack server uses dual 1400W platinum hot-swap power supplies and redundant cooling to manage heat from the 12-core 3.0GHz processors and SATA SSDs during sustained operation.

Which rails, cables and management licences must I already have to install this R650xs in a standard rack?

Ready Rails and a front bezel are included; the iDRAC9 Enterprise licence is pre-loaded, and the Broadcom 5720 quad-port 1GbE OCP 3.0 card provides network connectivity out of the box.

Can the PERC H745 controller and 2933MHz DDR4 slots work with my existing 2.5" SAS drives and older DDR4 DIMMs?

The H745 supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 on SATA and SAS interfaces, and the 16 DDR4 slots accept registered ECC modules up to 1TB total capacity.
