This PowerEdge R650 configuration offers up to eight NVMe drives only. The first four NVMe drives connect directly to CPU2, and the second four NVMe drives connect to CPU1. This configuration supports a great deal of NVMe capacity and allows for all I/O slots to remain available for other functional purposes.
