Dual Xeon Gold 5218R rack server
The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 is a 2U rack-mount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218R processors running at 2.1 GHz. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a Smart Array P408 SAS controller. No drives are installed, and the chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays for SAS storage. Remote management is handled by HPE iLO Advanced.
Enterprise workloads needing high core count
This configuration suits virtualisation hosts, database clusters or compute-heavy applications that benefit from 40 total cores and large memory capacity. The dual-processor design and SAS controller fit environments that rely on spinning-disk or SAS SSD arrays. Buyers who require installed storage, 10 GbE networking out of the box or a smaller tower form factor should look elsewhere.
768 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory
The installed 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered RAM is the decisive specification for memory-bound workloads such as in-memory databases or dense virtualisation. The platform can scale to 3 TB, but the shipping configuration locks in this capacity unless additional modules are purchased separately. Verify that your application fits within this memory ceiling before ordering.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and which parts such as drives or rails must be purchased separately?
The server ships with two Xeon Gold 5218R processors, 768GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, a Smart Array P408 controller, dual 500W power supplies and an Intel I350/X540 network card providing two 10GbE and two 1GbE ports. Drives and the rail kit are not included and must be ordered separately.
How do I choose between the available drive-bay options for this chassis?
The DL380 Gen10 chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch SAS bays; the exact bay count is set when the unit is configured, so select the configuration that matches the number of drives you plan to install.
What does the 2.1 GHz clock speed mean for real-world performance with 20 cores per processor?
Each Xeon Gold 5218R runs at 2.1 GHz with 20 cores and 27.5MB cache, giving 40 total cores for parallel workloads such as virtualization, databases and compute clusters while the base frequency ensures steady throughput under sustained load.
