HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 2x Xeon Bronze 3106 1.5TB DDR4 rack server

Dual Xeon Bronze 3106 rack server

This HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 system ships with two Intel Xeon Bronze 3106 processors running at 1.7GHz and 1.5TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes an HPE Smart Array P408 SAS controller. Integrated graphics and HPE iLO Advanced remote management are standard. It targets organisations needing dense compute and large memory capacity in a 2U form factor.

Verify rack space and power infrastructure

The unit measures 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighs 40 units, so confirm rack depth, weight rating and airflow clearance before ordering. Two 500W Flex Slot power supplies are installed; ensure your PDU connectors and circuit capacity match. Network connectivity provides two 10GbE and two 1GbE ports via Intel I350/X540 adapters; check switch port availability and cabling. Storage drives are not included, so plan drive procurement separately.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous workloads both Xeon Bronze 3106 processors operate at their 1.7GHz base frequency with 11MB cache each, while the 1.5TB DDR4 subsystem maintains ECC integrity across all channels. The P408 controller manages SAS or SATA drives with hardware RAID offload, reducing CPU overhead during prolonged I/O. Dual redundant power supplies share load evenly, and iLO Advanced enables remote thermal monitoring and firmware updates without downtime.
