HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 dual Xeon 5218 server

The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 is a 2U rack server populated with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It includes an HPE Smart Array P408 SAS controller and integrated Intel I350 and X540 network adapters providing two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports. The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays and ships with dual 500 W Flex Slot power supplies.

Suited for virtualisation and database workloads.

This configuration fits organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity for virtualisation, database hosting or general-purpose compute. Remote management is handled by HPE iLO Advanced. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays, or a different processor specification should evaluate other platforms.

512 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

The system arrives with 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across the two processors. Maximum supported capacity is 3 TB when all DIMM slots are populated. Memory type and generation are fixed to DDR4; other DDR generations are not compatible with this platform.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Xeon Gold 5218 processors and what step is often missed?

Seat both 2.3GHz CPUs in their LGA sockets, apply thermal paste evenly, and torque the heatsink retention screws in a cross pattern; the step most often missed is updating the iLO firmware before first boot so the new microcode loads correctly.

Which components will need replacement first under continuous operation?

The two 500W Flex Slot power supplies and the system fans are the first field-replaceable units to wear out; both are hot-swappable and can be changed without shutting down the DL380 Gen10.

What thermal or power limit appears first when the 512GB DDR4 configuration runs sustained workloads?

The 500W power-supply rating becomes the bounding limit before CPU thermal throttling; sustained all-core turbo on both 16-core Xeon Gold 5218 chips can draw more than the redundant pair delivers.
