PowerEdge R650xs 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6338 processors and 512GB of DDR4 memory. It includes a PERC H745 storage controller and ten 1.8TB SAS hard drives. Dual 1400W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise management are standard.

Workload fit and limits

This server suits virtualization, cloud infrastructure and dense data analytics workloads that need high core counts and large memory in a compact form factor. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI or machine learning tasks should look elsewhere as AI features are listed as none.

Deciding specification

The single specification that decides fit is the ten 2.5-inch drive bays wired to a PERC H745 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. If the workload requires more than ten front-accessible bays or a different controller feature set, this chassis will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

What rack height and rails does the R650xs need for mounting?

The server is a 1U rackmount unit and ships with Ready Rails for standard cabinet installation.

What steps are required to install the PERC H745 RAID controller?

The H745 controller comes pre-installed; configure RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 via the BIOS utility or iDRAC9 before adding the 10x 1.8TB SAS drives.

Which components will need replacement during the server's lifespan?

The H745 controller includes a battery-backed 4GB NV cache; the battery and the 2x 1400W hot-swap PSUs are the primary field-replaceable parts.
