HPE ProLiant DL385 G7 2U Server
The HPE ProLiant DL385 G7 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization and general business workloads. It ships with two AMD Opteron 6238 processors, each running at 2.60 GHz with 12 cores and 16 MB cache. The system includes 16 GB of DDR3-1333 registered memory across four DIMMs and an HP Smart Array P410i controller with 512 MB FBWC for SAS and SATA RAID.
Virtualization hosts and SMB datacenters
This server suits teams that need a two-socket AMD platform with integrated lights-out management and four gigabit Ethernet ports. It is not for buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, require more than two physical processors, or want optical media drives included. Builders needing higher single-thread clock speeds or newer memory generations should evaluate other platforms.
24 DDR3 DIMM slots, 512 GB maximum
The board provides 24 memory slots supporting up to 512 GB of DDR3 SDRAM. This capacity ceiling and the registered DIMM requirement are the decisive factors when planning memory upgrades or matching existing DDR3 inventory.

Questions about this item
Does the HPE ProLiant DL385 G7 ship with any drives, and what must I add for storage?
No hard drives are installed. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA bays and the Smart Array P410i controller with 512 MB FBWC supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50. Add compatible SAS or SATA drives to populate the bays.
Which memory configuration should I choose for the DL385 G7 with Opteron 6238 processors?
The server arrives with 16 GB as four 4 GB PC3-10600R DDR3-1333 registered DIMMs across 24 total slots. Maximum supported capacity is 512 GB. Add DDR3 registered modules in matched sets to reach the desired capacity.
What real-world throughput can I expect from the dual Opteron 6238 CPUs at 2.60 GHz?
Each processor delivers 12 cores at 2.60 GHz with 16 MB cache and a 115 W TDP. Together they provide 24 cores for virtualization or multi-threaded workloads, with performance scaling across the 512 GB memory ceiling and four Gigabit Ethernet ports.
