DELL PowerEdge R650xs 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon Gold 6338 2.0GHz 32-Core 256GB DDR4 H745 8x 1.8TB SAS

1U Rack Server with Dual Xeon Gold 6338

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server built for dense compute environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6338 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 32 cores and 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 3200 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and ready rails are included for immediate deployment.

Suited for virtualization and cloud workloads

This configuration targets organisations running virtualised infrastructure, high-performance computing or dense data analytics where core count and memory bandwidth matter. The eight 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives and H745 RAID controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for local redundancy. Buyers needing GPU acceleration for AI training or NVMe-only storage tiers should evaluate other platforms because this unit has no GPU installed and the front bays are populated with SAS hard drives.

H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache

The Dell PERC H745 front RAID controller provides 4 GB of non-volatile cache backed by a battery, enabling write-back caching across all supported RAID levels. This cache size directly affects sustained write throughput and data protection during power loss, making it the specification that determines whether the storage subsystem meets your application's consistency and performance requirements.
