PowerEdge R650xs 1U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server built for dense compute environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors, each running at 3.0 GHz with 12 cores. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power.

Virtualisation and database workloads

This server suits teams running virtualisation, cloud infrastructure or data analytics that need high core counts and large memory in a single rack unit. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays support SAS and SATA drives for mixed storage profiles. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or more than 1 TB of memory should look at a different platform.

Eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives with H745 RAID

The configuration includes eight 600 GB 10K SAS hard drives connected to a PERC H745 controller with 4 GB NV cache. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible data protection. If your workload requires NVMe speed or larger capacity per bay, this drive set will not match those needs.

Questions about this item

What rack depth and rails are required to mount this 1U server?

It is a 1U rack-mount system that ships with Ready Rails for standard four-post racks; verify your rack depth matches the rail range before installation.

How are the 16 DDR4 DIMMs installed across the two Xeon Gold 5317 processors?

Populate all 16 slots evenly — eight per CPU — using the 32 GB registered ECC modules at 2933 MHz so each processor has balanced memory channels.

When should the PERC H745 RAID battery be checked or replaced?

The H745 includes a 4 GB NV cache battery; plan to test its health during routine firmware updates and replace it if iDRAC 9 reports a degraded cache state.
