Compact 1U rack server
The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server built for dense data-center deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors running at 3.0 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management come standard.
Suits virtualization and database clusters.
This configuration targets workloads that demand high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit. Virtualization hosts, database clusters and dense compute farms benefit from the 12-core CPUs and 512 GB DDR4. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or workloads requiring NVMe flash should evaluate other platforms. The front bays accept SATA and SAS drives only.
Ten 960 GB SATA SSDs on a PERC H745 controller
Storage is provided by ten 960 GB enterprise SATA 6 Gb/s 2.5-inch SSDs managed by a Dell PERC H745 RAID controller with 4 GB non-volatile cache. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for redundancy and performance tuning. Network connectivity uses a Broadcom 5720 quad-port 1 GbE OCP 3.0 adapter. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack installation.

Questions about this item
Does the R650xs ship with all ten 960 GB SSDs installed and are rails included?
The server comes with ten 960 GB SATA SSDs pre-installed in the 2.5-inch bays and includes Ready Rails plus a front bezel.
Should I choose the 512 GB DDR4 configuration or add more modules later?
The unit already holds 512 GB across sixteen 32 GB DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC DIMMs; the platform supports up to 1 TB so additional modules can be added if workloads grow.
What real-world throughput can I expect from the H745 controller with these ten SATA SSDs?
The PERC H745 with 4 GB NV cache manages the ten 6 Gb/s SATA SSDs in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60, delivering sustained read/write speeds limited by the SATA 6 Gb/s interface.
