Dell PowerEdge R650xs 1U rack server

This 1U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors at 3.0 GHz, 12 cores each, and 256 GB of DDR4 memory. Dual 1400 W hot-swap power supplies and a PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB cache are included.

Suits dense virtualisation

Buyers who need NVMe-only storage or GPU acceleration should look elsewhere because the ten 2.5-inch bays are populated with SATA SSDs and the 1U chassis has no GPU provisioning.

Ten 960 GB SATA SSDs behind a PERC H745 controller

The storage controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across all ten drives, so the single specification that decides fit is whether your workload requires SATA SSD capacity with hardware RAID rather than NVMe speed.

Questions about this item

Does the R650xs ship with all ten 960 GB SATA SSDs installed or must I add drives myself?

The server arrives with ten 960 GB SATA 6 Gb/s 2.5" solid-state drives already populated in the front bays.

Should I choose the 256 GB DDR4 configuration or plan to expand toward the 1 TB maximum?

Eight 32 GB DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC modules fill eight of sixteen slots, leaving eight slots open for future growth up to 1 TB.

What throughput can I expect from the PERC H745 controller with the ten SSDs in RAID 5?

The H745 provides 4 GB non-volatile cache and supports RAID 5 across all ten SATA SSDs for balanced read performance and single-drive fault tolerance.
