HP ProLiant DL360 G9 1U rack server 2× Xeon E5-2640v3 2.6GHz 96GB DDR4 H240ar

Dense 1U compute platform

The HP ProLiant DL360 G9 is a 1U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2640v3 processors running at 2.6GHz. It ships with 96GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across its 24 DIMM slots and includes an HP Smart HBA H240ar controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual redundant 500W hot-swap power supplies and eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays complete the package for space-constrained data-centre deployments.

Suits virtualised workloads, not GPU compute

This server fits organisations running hypervisors, databases or high-density web tiers that benefit from 16 physical cores and 32 threads in a single rack unit. The Matrox G200 graphics with 16MB video memory provide only basic console output, so workloads needing GPU acceleration, 3D rendering or multiple display outputs will not be served. Buyers who need more than 96GB of installed memory or who require boot devices beyond SAS and SATA should look elsewhere because this unit maxes at 96GB and the controller handles SAS and SATA only.

96GB DDR4 memory ceiling

The installed 96GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory already reaches the maximum capacity supported by this specific configuration. Any expansion would require removing existing modules, so capacity planning must be finalised before deployment.
