Dual-processor rack server for dense compute
The HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 fits two Xeon Gold 5218 CPUs and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC memory into a 1U chassis with eight 2.5-inch drive bays. It targets workloads that need high core counts and large memory capacity in minimal rack space, such as virtualization hosts, database nodes or HPC clusters. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than two sockets should look elsewhere.
Thermals noise and power under load
Dual 500 W Flex Slot supplies feed the system while integrated fans scale speed to keep the 16-core processors within thermal limits during sustained workloads. Acoustic output rises with CPU utilisation but remains within typical data-centre expectations for a 1U platform. The Smart Array P408 controller adds minimal overhead to the power budget.
Remote management and networking extras
HPE iLO Advanced provides out-of-band console access, firmware updates and health monitoring without an operating system. A factory-installed Intel I350/X540 adapter delivers two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports for flexible fabric design. Rail kits are available on request to simplify rack integration.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Xeon Gold 5218 processors and what step is often missed?
Align the processor notches with the socket keys, lower the load plate, and torque the retention bracket in the numbered sequence; the step most often missed is applying the correct torque pattern before closing the bracket.
What maintenance will the 256GB DDR4 memory need later?
The DDR4 ECC registered modules are sealed and require no scheduled maintenance; replacement is only needed if a DIMM fails diagnostics or capacity must be increased toward the 3TB maximum.
What limit appears first when the Smart Array P408 controller runs sustained workloads?
The P408 controller's cache and SAS bandwidth become the bottleneck before the 2x 500W power supplies or the 2.3GHz Xeon cores reach their thermal ceiling.
