HP DL380 Gen10 8B SFF 2x Xeon Gold 6140 64GB DDR4 4x 300GB 15K SAS rack server

Dual Xeon Gold 6140 rack server

The HP DL380 Gen10 8B SFF is a 2U rackmount server built for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, backups and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6140 processors deliver 18 cores each at 2.30GHz, while 64GB of DDR4 memory supports multiple services and data-heavy applications. Four 300GB 15K SAS drives and a P408i-a controller provide high-speed storage for operating systems and business data.

Verify rack space power and memory limits

This unit occupies a 2U rackmount form factor and weighs 60 units, so confirm your cabinet can accept the depth and weight. The chassis provides 8x 2.5-inch drive bays, though only four are populated with the included SAS drives; plan additional drives if you need more capacity. Maximum memory capacity reaches 3TB, but the board requires DDR4 modules; ensure any expansion uses the correct generation. Network connectivity uses a quad-port 1Gb Ethernet adapter labelled 331.

Sustained enterprise workload behaviour

Dual 18-core processors maintain dependable performance during extended virtualization and database tasks rather than short bursts. The 15K SAS drives deliver consistent high-speed data access for continuous read-write cycles typical of backup and application hosting. The P408i-a controller manages RAID overhead without throttling during prolonged operations. Integrated GPU output is limited to basic display; sustained graphical workloads are not supported.
