Dense 1U compute node

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs packs two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors and 512GB of DDR4 memory into a single rack unit. Ten 960GB SATA SSDs sit behind a PERC H745 RAID controller with 4GB NV cache. Dual 1400W platinum power supplies, iDRAC9 Enterprise, a dual-port 10GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 card, rails and bezel complete the bundle.

Virtualization clusters, not GPU farms

This server suits teams that need dense CPU cores and fast local storage for hypervisors, databases or HPC head nodes. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, NVMe boot drives or more than two sockets should evaluate alternative platforms.

Dual-socket LGA 4189 ceiling

The chassis accepts a maximum of two 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors. If your workload demands four-socket scaling or a different socket generation, this 1U form factor cannot meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum installed memory this server can address with the two Xeon Silver 4310 processors?

The system supports up to 1 TB of DDR4 across 16 DIMM slots, while the current configuration provides 512 GB using 16x 32 GB modules at 2666 MT/s.

How loud and hot does the R650xs get when both 1400 W power supplies run continuously under load?

Dual 1400 W platinum supplies share the load for redundancy; the 1U chassis uses high-speed fans that increase airflow as CPU and drive temperatures rise, so sustained full-load operation will be audible in a quiet room.

Which networking hardware must already be in the rack for the onboard OCP 3.0 card to connect at 10 GbE?

The Broadcom 57412 dual-port card uses SFP+ transceivers, so the rack needs compatible 10 GbE SFP+ switches or direct-attach cables with matching SFP+ ends.
