12-bay 3.5" barebone chassis

The Dell PowerEdge R660XS is a new barebone server delivered without a CPU, heatsink, drives, RAID card or power supplies. It provides a 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis on the LGA 3647 platform for integrators who want full control over every internal component.

IT teams building custom compute nodes

This unit suits administrators who plan to select their own processors, cooling, storage media and power redundancy from scratch. Buyers who need a ready-to-run system with pre-validated components or integrated warranty coverage should look at fully configured models instead.

Empty bays and slots define the build

With no drives installed, you choose the exact mix of SSDs or HDDs the workload demands. The absent RAID card and power supplies mean you must source a compatible controller and redundant PSUs before the server can operate.

Questions about this item

Which CPUs and heatsinks must I already own for the LGA 3647 socket on this R660XS?

You need a Dell PowerEdge-compatible processor for the LGA 3647 socket plus a matching heatsink rated for that CPU's thermal design power.

Can I keep using my existing 3.5" drives in the 12 bays of this R660XS?

The 12 front bays accept standard 3.5" drives; install the drives you already have and add a RAID controller in an expansion slot to manage them.

How do I verify the R660XS is working after I install the CPU, heatsink, drives and power supplies?

Power on the server and watch the front-panel LCD for the POST sequence; a green system-health indicator and the BIOS screen confirm normal operation.
