DELL PowerEdge R650xs 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon Gold 6338 128GB DDR4 8x 960GB SSD

Compact 1U rack server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6338 32-core processors running at 2.0 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo. It provides 128 GB of DDR4 3200 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules and eight 960 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and a quad-port 1 GbE OCP 3.0 network card complete the package.

Virtualisation and cloud workloads needing high

This configuration suits environments that require many cores and fast local storage in a single rack unit, such as virtualisation clusters, container platforms or high-performance analytics. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training, larger memory capacity beyond 128 GB, or NVMe storage tiers should evaluate other models that support those features.

PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache

The storage subsystem centres on the Dell PERC H745 front RAID controller, which supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 and includes a 4 GB non-volatile cache with battery backup. This controller determines the data-protection and performance characteristics for the eight 960 GB SATA SSDs installed in the 2.5-inch drive bays.
