Enterprise Virtualization Server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10 is a 2U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, and application hosting. Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6138 processors deliver 40 cores at 2.00GHz for multi-threaded performance. 256GB of DDR4 memory supports multiple virtual machines and data-heavy applications. Two 960GB SATA SSDs provide solid-state storage for operating systems and fast local data access.

Installation and Controller Setup

The server arrives fully assembled with processors, memory, and storage installed in the 10-bay 2.5-inch SFF chassis. The HPE Smart Array P816i-a hardware RAID controller simplifies drive configuration for SAS and SATA devices. Enterprise hardware requires compatible rack rails, adequate power distribution, and cooling infrastructure not included with the unit. Builders without rack facilities or enterprise power circuits should consider tower alternatives.

Storage Interface Limits

The P816i-a controller manages SAS and SATA drives through the 10-bay backplane. SATA SSDs operate at the interface speed limit of the controller and backplane. The chassis supports up to ten 2.5-inch drives; additional capacity requires external enclosures. Maximum memory capacity reaches 3TB across available slots for future expansion.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the dual Xeon Gold 6138 processors are recognised after powering on the DL380 Gen10?

The front panel LEDs show power status and the iLO interface will display both CPUs with 40 total cores running at 2.00GHz.

Which components are included and which must be purchased separately for this 10-bay SFF server?

The chassis includes two Xeon Gold 6138 CPUs, 256GB DDR4 memory, P816i-a controller and two 960GB SATA SSDs; operating system and additional drives are not supplied.

Should I choose the 256GB DDR4 configuration or plan to expand toward the 3TB maximum for virtualization workloads?

Start with the installed 256GB DDR4 for typical virtualization; the board supports up to 3TB if your VM density grows beyond the initial capacity.
