HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 1U rack server E5-2640 v3 2.6GHz 16GB DDR4 4x 300GB SAS H240ar

1U rack server with Xeon E5-2640 v3

The HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.6 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and four 300 GB 15K RPM 3.5-inch SAS hard drives. A Smart HBA H240ar controller provides RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 support. Dual 500 W redundant hot-swap power supplies are included. The chassis occupies 1U of rack space and uses a Matrox G200 graphics controller.

Suits single-CPU workloads needing 15K SAS storage

This server fits buyers who need a compact 1U platform with high-speed 15K RPM SAS drives and hardware RAID for databases, virtualization hosts or traditional enterprise applications. The single installed processor leaves one socket free for future expansion up to two CPUs. Memory can grow to 3 TB across 24 DIMM slots when a second processor is added. Buyers who need solid-state storage, GPU compute, or a second processor installed from the start should look elsewhere.

Four 300 GB 15K SAS drives on H240ar controller

The storage subsystem centres on four 300 GB 15K RPM 3.5-inch SAS drives connected to the Smart HBA H240ar 12 Gb/s SAS / 6 Gb/s SATA RAID controller. This combination delivers the IOPS and redundancy levels required for transactional workloads. The controller supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 across the four installed bays. No solid-state drives or small-form-factor bays are present in this configuration.
