DELL PowerEdge R650xs rack server 2x Xeon Silver 4310 2.1GHz 12C 64GB DDR4 10x 1.8TB SAS H745 2x 1400W

PowerEdge R650xs 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across four modules and ships with a PERC H745 RAID controller, ten 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives, dual 10 GbE SFP+ networking, iDRAC9 Enterprise, redundant 1400 W platinum power supplies, rails and a front bezel.

Suited for dense virtualization and cloud workloads

This configuration targets environments that need high core density and fast local storage in a single rack unit, such as virtualization clusters, container platforms or analytics nodes. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, larger memory capacity than 64 GB, NVMe boot drives or a deeper chassis for additional expansion cards should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB NV cache

The storage subsystem centres on the Dell PERC H745 controller with 4 GB non-volatile cache and battery backup, supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the ten 1.8 TB SAS drives. This controller choice determines the achievable RAID levels, cache protection and drive compatibility for the deployment.
