HP ProLiant DL360 G9 1U rack server E5-2670v3 12C 2.3GHz 8GB DDR4 8x 146GB SAS H240ar

1U rack server for dense compute

The HP ProLiant DL360 G9 is a 1U rack server built for environments where space is limited but multi-threaded performance is required. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2670v3 twelve-core processor running at 2.3 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Eight 146 GB 15K SAS drives and an H240ar controller provide high-speed local storage with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 support. Dual 500 W redundant power supplies keep the platform running through a module failure.

Suited to virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This configuration suits IT teams deploying virtualisation clusters, database instances or high-throughput applications that benefit from twelve physical cores and fast 15K SAS spindles. The 24 DIMM slots allow memory to be scaled far beyond the factory 8 GB when workloads demand it. Buyers who need more than one processor installed, who require solid-state drives from the factory, or who need a GPU for compute acceleration should evaluate other platforms.

Twelve-core Xeon E5-2670v3 at 2.3 GHz

The installed processor delivers twelve cores and twenty-four threads at a base frequency of 2.3 GHz, defining the server's peak multi-threaded throughput. With a maximum of two sockets supported by the C610 chipset, a second identical CPU can be added later to double the core count to twenty-four. This single specification determines whether the system meets the performance envelope for the target workload.
