Dense 1U Compute Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 memory configured across 16 modules of 32 GB at 2666 MHz. The system uses a PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60.

Virtualization and Dense Storage Target

This server suits organisations running virtualised workloads, private cloud infrastructure or dense data analytics that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit. It also fits teams requiring eight 1.92 TB SATA SSDs with hardware RAID and quad-port 1 GbE networking managed through iDRAC9 Enterprise. Buyers needing GPU acceleration, NVMe drive bays or 10 GbE and faster networking should evaluate other platforms.

Eight 1.92 TB SATA SSDs on H745 RAID

The critical specification is the storage subsystem: eight 2.5-inch SATA SSDs of 1.92 TB each connected to the PERC H745 controller. This combination fixes usable capacity, drive interface and RAID feature set. If the workload demands NVMe performance, SAS connectivity or a different drive count, this configuration will not match those requirements.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the H745 controller is managing the 8x 1.92TB SSDs correctly after installation?

Open the H745 BIOS utility during boot and confirm all eight 1.92TB SATA SSDs appear in the array configuration with the desired RAID level such as RAID 5 or RAID 10.

Which components are included and which must be purchased separately for the R650xs?

The server ships with 2x Silver 4310 processors, 512GB DDR4 ECC memory, H745 controller, 8x 1.92TB SSDs, 5720 quad-port 1GbE OCP 3.0 card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, 2x 1400W PSUs, rails and bezel. OS licences and extra drives are not included.

Should I choose the 512GB DDR4 configuration or upgrade toward the 1TB maximum?

The 512GB (16x 32GB DDR4 2666MHz) suits most virtualization and database workloads; move toward 1TB only if your applications consistently exceed 512GB active memory and you have budget for additional 32GB modules.
