HPE P57685-B21 ProLiant DL320 Gen11 Xeon 3408U 1.8GHz 8-core 16GB DDR5 4LFF 500W rack server

Single-socket Xeon Bronze 3408U rack server

This 1U ProLiant DL320 Gen11 system ships with an 8-core Intel Xeon Bronze 3408U processor running at 1.8 GHz and a 125 W TDP. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR5 registered ECC memory occupy one of sixteen slots, supporting expansion up to 2.04 TB. A 500 W platinum power supply and embedded dual-port Gigabit Ethernet complete the baseline configuration for rack deployment.

Suited for single-processor workloads

The single-socket design and one installed processor limit this chassis to 8 cores, so buyers who require higher core counts or dual-processor scaling should evaluate other platforms. Four LFF drive bays with a 12 Gb/s SAS backplane favour capacity-oriented storage, while the absence of pre-installed drives means builders needing ready-to-run arrays must add media separately.

4 LFF 12 Gb/s SAS backplane

The low-profile backplane accepts up to four large-form-factor drives and connects through an embedded SATA controller that supports RAID. This layout determines whether the server can meet a given storage density or performance target without additional controller cards.
