HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10 10-Bay Server
The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10 is a 2U rackmount server system built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, and application hosting. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors running at 2.40GHz, providing a total of 40 cores and 96GB of DDR4 memory.
Suits Virtualization and Storage-Heavy Roles
This configuration suits IT teams running multiple virtual machines, file storage, or backup services on a single chassis. The 10-bay 2.5-inch drive cage holds two 1TB SATA SSDs and eight 600GB SAS HDDs managed by a P408i-a controller. Buyers who need more than two physical processors or dedicated GPU compute should evaluate alternative platforms.
Dual Xeon Gold 6148 40-Core CPU Complex
The decisive specification is the dual-processor layout: two Gold 6148 CPUs fixed at 24 cores each, delivering 40 threads total at a base frequency of 2.40GHz. The socket count is maxed at two, so the core ceiling cannot be raised without changing the server model.

Questions about this item
What rack depth and rail kit do I need for this 2.5-inch 10-bay DL380 Gen10 chassis?
The unit is a standard 2U rackmount server with ten 2.5-inch drive bays; it fits a typical 600 mm deep rack and uses the HP Gen10 quick-release rail kit for tool-less mounting.
How do I configure the P408i-a controller for the mixed 1TB SATA SSD and 600GB SAS HDD array, and what step is often missed?
Enter the P408i-a UEFI utility at boot, create separate logical drives for the two 1TB SATA SSDs and the eight 600GB SAS drives, then enable write-back cache only after the battery-backed cache module is verified present — skipping that check is the common error.
When will the DDR4 memory or the P408i-a cache battery need replacement?
The 96GB DDR4 DIMMs are rated for continuous server duty and typically run for years; the P408i-a flash-backed write cache module uses a super-capacitor that does not require scheduled replacement, unlike older battery-backed units.
