HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen9 8SFF rack server 2× Xeon E5-2683 v4 2.1GHz 768GB DDR4

Rack server for dense compute

The HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen9 packs two Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors running at 2.1GHz and 768GB of DDR4 memory into a 10U rack chassis that supports eight 2.5-inch drive bays. It targets teams running virtualisation clusters, database workloads or HPC jobs that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a standard rack footprint.

Upgrade from smaller memory or single-socket systems

Moving from a single-socket box or a configuration below 768GB DDR4 makes sense when workloads exceed the memory ceiling or when licence costs favour fewer, denser nodes. The jump is worth it when you can consolidate multiple older hosts onto this platform and still leave headroom up to the 1536GB maximum.

Tool-less rail install with controller checks

The server slides into a rack on the included rail kit and uses tool-less drive carriers for the eight SAS bays. Common issues are mismatched drive carriers, forgetting to cable the P440 controller to the backplane, and leaving the iLO network port disconnected so remote management is unavailable after the first boot.
