Server Identity

The HPE ProLiant DL380p Gen8 is a 2U rack server populated with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v2 processors running at 2.0 GHz and 32 GB of DDR3 registered memory. It targets IT teams that need a dual-socket platform with integrated 1 Gb quad-port networking and a hardware RAID controller for immediate deployment.

Fit and Limits

Suits workloads that run on eight-core CPUs with up to 384 GB of DDR3 across 24 DIMM slots and that can use the eight SFF drive bays or the optional second cage for 16 bays total. Not for buyers who need more than two processors, more than 384 GB of RAM, or memory technology other than DDR3.

Deciding Specification

The Smart Array P420i controller with 1 GB flash-backed write cache supports RAID 0, 1, 10, 5 and 50 over SATA 600 and 6 Gb/s SAS, so storage layout flexibility is the single factor that confirms whether this chassis matches the project.
