DELL PowerEdge R650 rack server 2×Xeon Silver 4310 2.1GHz 12-core 512GB DDR4 10×960GB SSD H755

Enterprise 1U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R650 is a new 1U rack server built for dense enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores and a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 modules. A PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache manages the storage array.

Virtualisation And Database Targets

This configuration suits organisations deploying virtualisation clusters, database engines or private clouds that need high core counts and large memory in a single rack unit. The ten drive bays support mixed SAS, SATA and NVMe media for flexible tiering. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, more than two sockets or denser 3.5-inch storage should evaluate alternative platforms.

Ten 960 GB SATA SSDs Configured

The chassis holds ten 2.5-inch enterprise SATA SSDs, each rated at 960 GB, connected to the H755 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included. This storage count and interface determine whether the server meets capacity and throughput needs.
