HPE ML350 Gen9 8SFF 1x Xeon E5-2650 v3 192GB RAM rack server

HPE ML350 Gen9 8SFF Rack Server

The HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen9 is a 2U rack server fitted with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor running at 2.3GHz with 10 cores and 25MB cache. It ships with 192GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a Smart Array P440 SAS controller. The 8SFF chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays, though no drives are installed in this configuration.

Suited for memory-heavy workloads.

This server suits environments that need large memory capacity from a single socket, such as virtualisation hosts or in-memory databases. The installed 192GB DDR4 leaves room to expand toward the 1536GB maximum. Buyers who require a second processor from day one or who need more than eight drive bays should look elsewhere.

Single Xeon E5-2650 v3 with 10 cores

The decisive specification is the single 10-core Xeon E5-2650 v3 at 2.3GHz. It provides 25MB cache and supports a second processor upgrade when workloads grow. The P440 controller manages SAS drives, and dual 500W power supplies are fitted. Remote management is handled by HPE iLO Advanced.
