DELL PowerEdge R650 1U 10x2.5" 2x Xeon Gold 6330 2.0GHz 28C 1TB DDR4 H755 10x600GB SAS 5720 iDRAC9 2x1400W

PowerEdge R650 1U server

The Dell PowerEdge R650 is a 1U rack server built for dense enterprise workloads. It runs two Intel Xeon Gold 6330 processors, each with 28 cores at 2.0 GHz and a 3.1 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 1 TB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across 32 modules. A PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache manages ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives.

Suited for virtualization and databases.

This configuration targets virtualization, database management and private cloud deployments that need high core counts and fast local storage. The quad-port 1 GbE OCP 3.0 adapter handles standard network traffic. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or larger memory capacity beyond 2 TB should look at other platforms. The 1U form factor also limits PCIe expansion slots.

Ten 600 GB SAS drives on H755 controller

The storage subsystem provides ten 2.5-inch 600 GB 10K SAS drives connected to the PERC H755 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This drive count and controller combination decides whether the server meets performance and redundancy needs for transactional workloads. The 12 Gb/s SAS interface delivers consistent throughput for mixed read-write patterns.
