AMD EPYC 1U dual-socket — dense rack with AMD economics.

Quick answer

Dell PowerEdge R6625 is the 1U dual-socket sibling of R7625. It pairs AMD EPYC 9004/9005 core density with a dense 1U rack form factor — ideal for hyper-converged AMD nodes, Kubernetes worker nodes and rack-constrained data centers.

Dell PowerEdge R6625 brings AMD EPYC core density to a 1U rack form factor. The platform is the AMD counterpart to R660 and the rack-density counterpart to R7625. For Nutanix Cloud Platform, VMware vSAN ESA and Azure Stack HCI clusters that prefer AMD, R6625 is the canonical node.

Use Cases

When would you choose this product?

Hyper-converged infrastructure

Nutanix and vSAN ESA on AMD

AMD HCI nodes for customers standardized on EPYC — typical for telco edge cloud and high-density private cloud deployments.

Containers and Kubernetes

Dense Kubernetes worker

High-core 1U worker nodes for OpenShift, EKS Anywhere and upstream Kubernetes clusters.

Virtual desktop infrastructure

Dense VDI in rack-constrained sites

VDI for European colocation facilities and US edge sites where rack space is constrained.

Who is it for?

AMD-standardized HCI and Kubernetes operators across rack-density-constrained EU, UK and US enterprises.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions

How does R6625 differ from R660?

R660 uses Intel Xeon Scalable; R6625 uses AMD EPYC. For per-core count, memory bandwidth and VMware per-core licensing TCO, R6625 has the edge. For broader ISV certification and AVX-512, R660 has the edge.

What happens if I need more storage capacity?

Scale up to the 2U R7625 with 24 SFF NVMe bays, or scale out by adding more nodes — common for HCI clusters that scale by node addition.

Does the OCP 3.0 slot accept 100 GbE?

Yes — modular network adapters in 1, 10, 25, 50 and 100 GbE plus InfiniBand HDR/NDR are supported, hot-swappable from the front of the chassis.

Power consumption?

400-600 W typical under load; planning for high-density PDU and cold-aisle containment is recommended for fully populated racks.

Warranty?

Three years ProSupport with optional ProSupport Plus 24/7 4-hour SLA upgrade.

GPU support?

Limited to single-slot, low-profile accelerators. For dense AI inference, R7625 with up to three double-slot GPUs is the better choice; for training, the dedicated XE9680 is recommended.
