1U Rack Server with Dual Xeon Silver 4310

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a new 1U rack server built for dense data-centre deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores each. Memory capacity is 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC DIMMs. Eight 960 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H745 RAID controller provide the primary storage subsystem.

Suited for virtualisation and cloud workloads.

This configuration suits virtualisation, cloud infrastructure and high-performance computing tasks that benefit from high core counts and fast local storage. The single 1U height and redundant 1400 W power supplies support space-constrained racks. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or who require NVMe storage tiers should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache

The installed Dell PERC H745 controller manages the eight SATA SSDs with 4 GB of non-volatile cache and a battery backup. It supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible data protection. This controller choice determines the storage performance and redundancy options available without adding extra hardware.

Questions about this item

Does the R650xs arrive with all eight 2.5" drive bays populated, or do I need to buy drives separately?

The server ships with eight 960GB SATA SSDs already installed, filling every front bay so no additional drives are required for the base configuration.

Should I choose the single-processor or dual-processor version for a virtualisation host that needs 256GB of memory?

This unit includes two Xeon Silver 4310 processors and 256GB of DDR4 2666MHz ECC memory across eight 32GB modules, delivering the full memory capacity in a dual-socket layout.

What does the 2.1GHz base clock with 3.3GHz turbo mean for sustained database performance on this server?

Each Silver 4310 runs at 2.1GHz base and can boost to 3.3GHz, providing 12 cores per socket for consistent throughput on transactional workloads while the H745 controller with 4GB cache accelerates storage I/O.
