HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 1U Server

The HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built for dense compute environments. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2643v3 six-core processor running at 3.4GHz and 96GB of DDR4 memory. The chassis includes eight 2.5-inch drive bays and a Smart HBA H240ar controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 500W redundant power supplies are fitted as standard.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This server fits workloads that need strong single-thread performance and up to 96GB of memory in a 1U form factor. Virtualisation hosts, database nodes and high-frequency compute tasks benefit from the 3.4GHz clock speed. Buyers who need more than 96GB of installed memory or who require a second processor from day one should consider a different configuration. The Matrox G200 graphics with 16MB video memory is only suitable for basic management console output.

The specification that decides fit

The installed memory is fixed at 96GB and matches the maximum capacity supported with a single processor. If your application demands more RAM, you must add a second CPU to unlock the remaining DIMM slots and reach higher totals. The H240ar controller provides 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA connectivity for the eight SFF bays. No drives are included, so storage capacity and type are entirely determined by the drives you add.
