ProLiant ML350 Gen11 Tower Server
This 4U tower server ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6430 processors, each offering 32 cores at a 2.1 GHz base frequency and a 3.40 GHz turbo. It arrives populated with 256 GB of DDR5-4800 ECC buffered memory across eight 32 GB modules. The storage array provides 7.68 TB via four 1.92 TB enterprise SAS 12Gb/s SSDs. Windows Server 2022 Standard is licensed for 16 cores.
SAS 12Gb/s Interface And PCIe Gen5 Slots
The four 2.5-inch SSDs connect through a SAS 12Gb/s backplane managed by the MR408i-o Gen11 storage controller with 4 GB cache. PCIe Gen5 expansion slots supply high-throughput lanes for additional controllers or accelerators. Embedded networking is limited to a four-port 1GbE OCP3 adapter; faster Ethernet requires an add-in card. Hot-swappable redundant power supplies allow replacement without downtime.
256 GB Memory Ceiling And 7.68 TB Storage Base
The 256 GB DDR5 configuration reaches the platform's stated maximum memory capacity, leaving no headroom for further RAM expansion. The 7.68 TB SSD array suits read-intensive databases and virtualised workloads, though write-heavy applications may demand higher-endurance drives. Buyers needing more storage bays or greater memory capacity must evaluate larger chassis options.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the dual Xeon 6430 configuration or a single-processor option?
This unit ships with two Xeon Gold 6430 CPUs, each with 32 cores at 2.1 GHz and 60 MB cache, giving 64 cores total. A single-processor version would halve the core count and memory channels.
What does the 2.1 GHz base clock mean for real-world throughput?
Each core runs at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.4 GHz under load, so sustained multi-threaded workloads such as virtualization or databases benefit from 64 active threads at high frequency.
How fast is the SAS 12 Gb/s interface in practice?
The four 1.92 TB enterprise SSDs connect via 12 Gb/s SAS to the MR408i-o controller with 4 GB cache, so sequential throughput is limited by the 12 Gb/s link and drive firmware.
