HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10 10 Bay 2x Xeon Platinum 8160 2.1GHz 512GB DDR4 P408i-a

10-Bay Rack Server for Virtualisation

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10 is a 10-bay 2U rack server built for business workloads such as file storage, virtualisation, databases, backups and application hosting. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors running at 2.10GHz, giving 48 cores total and 512GB of DDR4 memory installed. An integrated P408i-a storage controller is included to simplify array setup and daily management. Drives are not supplied, so you select the capacity and type that suit your environment.

Verify Rack Space and Power Before Ordering

Confirm that your rack can accommodate a 2U chassis and that your power distribution units deliver the required connectors and phase configuration for dual-processor operation. The system uses 2.5-inch drive trays across ten bays, so plan drive purchases around that form factor. Memory expansion uses DDR4 slots up to a 3TB maximum; ensure any additional modules match the installed DDR4 specification. No operating system is included, so licence and install your preferred hypervisor or OS separately.

Replaces Older Dual-Socket Racks When Core Density

This server replaces earlier dual-socket rack systems when you need higher core counts and larger memory capacity for consolidation or virtualisation. The jump is worth it if your current platform cannot reach 48 cores or 512GB of DDR4 in a 10-bay chassis. Buyers who need more than ten drive bays or who require GPU-accelerated compute should look at alternative configurations. The P408i-a controller supports RAID levels suitable for typical business arrays without additional hardware.
