HPE ML350 Gen9 8SFF rack server 2x Xeon E5-2667 v4 512GB DDR4 no drive

HPE ML350 Gen9 8SFF dual Xeon server

The HPE ML350 Gen9 8SFF is a 2U rack-mount server system built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2667 v4 processors running at 3.2 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch SAS drive bays and includes an HPE Smart Array P440 controller with 2 GB flash-backed write cache.

Suits memory-heavy virtualisation

This configuration suits organisations that need maximum installed memory and high single-thread performance for in-memory databases or dense virtualisation hosts. The dual 8-core CPUs and 512 GB DDR4 provide substantial headroom for simultaneous workloads. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, a tower form factor, or more than eight drive bays should look elsewhere because the 8SFF chassis and integrated graphics cannot meet those requirements.

512 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the 512 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across 24 DIMM slots. The platform supports a maximum of 1536 GB, so the current population leaves room for future expansion. Workloads that fit within this memory footprint will run without swapping; larger datasets will require additional modules or a different server.
