DELL PowerEdge R650xs 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon Silver 4314 2.4GHz 16-Core 256GB DDR4 10x 600GB SAS H745 2x 1400W

Purpose-Built 1U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4314 processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 16 cores. It includes 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules and a PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache. Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives and dual 1400 W platinum power supplies complete the configuration.

Suited For Dense Virtualisation.

This server suits organisations deploying virtualisation, cloud infrastructure or high-performance computing in space-constrained racks. The dual-socket design and 1 TB maximum memory capacity support heavy multi-threaded workloads. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI or machine learning tasks should look elsewhere, as the 1U chassis does not accommodate graphics cards.

10-Bay 2.5-Inch SAS Storage Decision

The defining specification is the ten-bay 2.5-inch SAS backplane paired with the H745 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This layout determines whether the server fits a storage-heavy, high-IOPS deployment or if a different drive-count or NVMe-focused platform is required.
