DELL PowerEdge R650xs 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon Gold 6330 2.0GHz 28 Core 128GB DDR4 H745 2x 1400W PSUs

Dense 1U compute node

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs packs two Xeon Gold 6330 processors into a 1U rack chassis. Twenty-eight cores at 2.0 GHz base and 3.1 GHz turbo deliver high thread density for virtualization and dense analytics. Eight DDR4 slots hold 128 GB of registered ECC memory running at 2933 MHz. Dual 1400 W platinum supplies and hot-swap trays keep the platform running during maintenance.

Suited for memory-bound clusters

This server fits clusters that need many cores and fast memory in minimal rack space. The PERC H745 controller manages eight 2.5-inch SAS or SATA bays with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers who need NVMe acceleration or GPU compute should evaluate other platforms. The single OCP 3.0 quad-port 1 GbE adapter limits network throughput for storage-heavy workloads.

Dual-socket Xeon Gold 6330 decides fit

The pair of 28-core Xeon Gold 6330 CPUs defines whether this node matches the workload. Each socket uses the LGA 4189 package and supports up to 1 TB of DDR4 per processor. If the application scales beyond two sockets or requires faster memory than 3200 MT/s, a different server family is required.
