DELL PowerEdge R650xs 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon Silver 4316 2.3GHz 20-Core 128GB DDR4 H745 10x 1.8TB SAS

1U rack server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs fits two Xeon Silver 4316 processors and 128GB of DDR4 memory into a single rack unit. It targets virtualization clusters, cloud infrastructure and high-performance analytics that demand high core counts in minimal space. Buyers who need GPU-accelerated AI training or large NVMe arrays should look elsewhere.

Tool-free rails and hot-swap components

Ready Rails mount the 1U chassis without tools and the front bezel snaps on afterwards. All ten 2.5-inch drive bays and both 1400 W power supplies are hot-swappable, so failed disks or PSUs can be replaced without downtime. The PERC H745 controller battery must be seated before the first RAID initialisation or the array will report a degraded cache state.

Ten 1.8 TB SAS drives on a H745 controller

The PERC H745 with 4 GB NV cache presents the ten 12 Gb/s SAS disks as a single logical volume or multiple RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 sets. This capacity and RAID flexibility decide whether the server matches your storage performance and redundancy requirements.
