DELL PowerEdge R650xs 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon Silver 4310 2.1GHz 12 Core 512GB DDR4 H745

Dense 1U compute platform

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server built for high-density environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores. A total of 512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory is installed across 16 slots. The system includes a PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays

Storage capacity is determined by the eight front-accessible 2.5-inch trays that accept SAS or SATA drives. The H745 controller manages the array and provides hardware RAID with battery-backed cache. No NVMe drives are mentioned in the supplied configuration, so the bays are limited to SAS and SATA interfaces. Maximum memory capacity reaches 1 TB across 16 DIMM slots.

Suited for virtualization and dense workloads

This server fits organisations running virtualisation, cloud infrastructure or data analytics in limited rack space. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise simplify remote management. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, NVMe storage or more than two processors should look at alternative platforms.
