DELL PowerEdge R650 rack server 2x Xeon Silver 4310 2.1GHz 12-core 64GB DDR4 10x 960GB SSD H755

Compact 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R650 is a 1U rack server built for dense compute environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules. Ten 960 GB SATA solid-state drives are installed behind the front bays, managed by a PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB of NV cache.

Suited for virtualization and database clusters

This configuration targets workloads that benefit from high core counts and fast local storage, such as virtualization hosts, database nodes or private cloud clusters. The dual-processor design and 10-drive capacity provide a balanced platform for mixed read and write patterns. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, NVMe-only storage or a deeper chassis for additional PCIe cards should evaluate alternative platforms.

Ten 960 GB SATA SSDs and PERC H755 controller

The storage subsystem consists of ten 960 GB SATA 6 Gb/s 2.5-inch enterprise SSDs connected to the Dell PERC H755 controller. The controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with its 8 GB non-volatile cache and battery backup. This combination determines usable capacity, redundancy options and sustained write performance for the deployed workload.
