Dell PowerEdge R650xs 1U 8x 2.5" 2x Xeon Silver 4314 128GB DDR4 H745 8x 960GB SSD

Dual Xeon Silver 4314 1U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4314 processors. Each CPU provides 16 cores running at 2.4 GHz with a 3.4 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight DIMM slots. It is built for virtualization, dense compute clusters and general-purpose data-centre workloads that demand high core counts in a compact form factor.

H745 RAID Eight-Bay Storage

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays connect to a Dell PERC H745 controller with 4 GB non-volatile cache and battery backup. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. The server ships with eight 960 GB SATA SSDs installed, leaving no empty bays for additional drives without removing existing units. A Broadcom 57412 dual-port 10 GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 card handles network connectivity, while iDRAC9 Enterprise provides dedicated remote management. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and sliding rails are included.

Sustained Multi-Core Throughput

Under continuous load the 32 combined cores maintain high throughput for parallel workloads such as hypervisor hosts, container fleets and batch processing. The H745 cache and battery preserve write performance and data integrity during extended write-heavy operations. DDR4 2666 MHz memory delivers consistent bandwidth for memory-bound tasks. The platform supports up to 1 TB of total memory for future expansion. Buyers who require NVMe acceleration, GPU compute or more than eight drive bays should consider alternative configurations.
