Compact 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server built for dense data-center deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors running at 3.0 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management come standard.

Suits virtualization and database clusters.

This configuration targets workloads that demand high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit. Virtualization hosts, database clusters and dense compute farms benefit from the 12-core CPUs and 512 GB DDR4. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or workloads requiring NVMe flash should evaluate other platforms. The front bays accept SATA and SAS drives only.
