HP ProLiant DL360p Gen8 1U Rack Server

The HP ProLiant DL360p Gen8 is a compact, enterprise-grade 1U rack server built around the Intel Xeon E5-2650 8-core processor with 32GB DDR3 ECC RAM and 892GB SAS HDD storage — backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty. Featuring iLO4 remote management, dual-port 10GbE, and hot-swap redundant power supplies, this is a proven platform for virtualisation, databases, and business-critical workloads.

Key Benefits

• 8-core Xeon performance: Intel Xeon E5-2650 at 2.0GHz (16 threads) handles concurrent virtualisation, database queries, and application hosting with ease.
• 32GB ECC RAM: Error-correcting DDR3 registered memory protects data integrity under heavy load — essential for production server environments.
• iLO4 remote management: HP's Integrated Lights-Out 4 lets you monitor, reboot, and manage the server remotely, even when the OS is unresponsive.
• Dual-port 10GbE networking: On-board 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports deliver high-throughput connectivity for storage networks, VM migration, and high-bandwidth applications.
• Redundant hot-swap PSUs: Two hot-swap power supplies mean zero downtime for PSU failure — swap them live without powering down the server.
• 1U rack-optimised design: Slim form factor maximises rack density, fitting more compute into constrained data centre or server room space.

Performance In Use

In a virtualisation environment, the DL360p G8's Xeon E5-2650 CPU with 16 threads and 32GB ECC RAM gives VMware ESXi or Hyper-V hosts solid headroom for 8–12 concurrent VMs running Windows Server or Linux workloads. The iLO4 interface allows IT staff to deploy, snapshot, and troubleshoot guests remotely without physical access to the rack — a significant advantage for lean teams managing remote sites or colo facilities.

For database and application hosting, the SAS HDD and dual 10GbE ports provide a reliable IOPS baseline and fast network throughput for mid-size SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or web application stacks. The redundant PSU configuration means this server can remain in a production rotation where uptime requirements are high and maintenance windows are narrow.

Organisations running a dev/test or secondary production environment will find the DL360p G8 offers enterprise-class reliability at a fraction of the cost of new hardware — with HP's mature Gen8 platform supported by a wide ecosystem of compatible DIMMs, drives, and expansion cards still readily available.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this server support additional RAM?

Yes. The DL360p Gen8 supports up to 384GB of DDR3 ECC registered RAM across its memory slots.

Can I add more drives or switch to SSDs?

Yes. The DL360p G8 supports hot-swap SAS and SATA drives. Compatible SAS SSDs can be installed to expand storage capacity.

What is iLO4?

HP iLO4 is a remote management controller that lets you access, reboot, and configure the server over a network even when powered off. Basic iLO functionality is included; advanced features require an iLO Advanced licence.

Is a second CPU included?

This configuration ships with one Intel Xeon E5-2650. The DL360p G8 supports dual-socket configurations — a second CPU can be added if required.

What operating systems are supported?

Compatible with Windows Server 2012/2016/2019, VMware ESXi 6.x/7.x, and major Linux distributions. Ships without OS pre-installed.

What are the shipping costs?

Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
