HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 8-bay SFF Xeon E5-2640 v3 2.6GHz 16GB 2x 146GB SAS H240ar

Dense 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 is a 1U rackmount server system built for space-constrained data centres. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.6GHz and 16GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Two 146GB 15K SAS drives and an H240ar Smart HBA controller provide the initial storage foundation. Dual 500W redundant hot-swap power supplies support continuous operation.

Suited for virtualisation hosts needing dense

This configuration fits organisations consolidating workloads onto a single-socket platform with room to add a second processor and scale memory across 24 DIMM slots. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays and RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 support cover a range of local storage topologies. Buyers who need more than two processors, more than eight drive bays, a GPU for compute acceleration or an operating system pre-installed should evaluate alternative platforms.

Maximum two-processor scaling ceiling

The Intel C610 chipset limits the system to a maximum of two Xeon E5 v3 or v4 processors, capping total cores at 36. Memory capacity can reach 3TB when fully populated with supported DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s. This hard processor limit is the decisive factor for capacity planning.
