An Expandable 2U Entry Server on the DL380 Platform
This HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 (P71679-005) is a right-sized entry build of the flagship 2U server: a 12-core Intel Xeon Silver 4510, 64 GB of DDR5, and 960 GB of SSD storage. It is a sensible starting point for general workloads that do not need top-bin cores on day one but may grow. Compare it across the HPE range and other Servers.
Choosing the 2U DL380 over a 1U sibling buys expansion room: more drive bays, more PCIe slots, and the same second-socket and memory headroom, so this entry configuration has plenty of space to scale into.
Where It Fits
- General infrastructure and application roles that fit comfortably in 12 cores and 64 GB
- Buyers who want the 2U DL380's expansion room from the start
- First servers for smaller environments planning to grow
What It Delivers
- Intel Xeon Silver 4510: 12 cores at 2.40 GHz, second socket available.
- 64 GB DDR5 with open slots for expansion.
- 960 GB SSD (two 480 GB drives) for fast local storage.
- Hot-swap SFF bays and redundant power in an expandable 2U chassis.
