Detailed Specifications
HPE P04646-B21 - ProLiant DL325 Gen10 1U Rack Server
Overview
The HPE P04646-B21 is a single-socket, 1U rack-mount server crafted for I/O-intensive and virtualised environments that demand compact form-factor with strong throughput. It is configured with an AMD EPYC 7251 8-core (2.1 GHz) processor and 8 GB of DDR4 registered memory×sufficient for entry deployments such as virtual machine hosts, software-defined storage nodes or general-purpose compute in branch or edge datacentres. The server's 4 large-form-factor (LFF) hot-plug drive bays offer high capacity for bulk data storage or backup applications.In real-world use, you'd rack this unit alongside networking gear in a standard 19-inch rack, leveraging its non-redundant 500 W power supply and embedded HPE iLO management for remote monitoring and firmware updates. Because it is based on the AMD EPYC single-socket architecture, the DL325 line delivers a "2P equivalence" level of I/O and memory bandwidth in a 1P design×a compelling cost-effective choice for mid-density deployments. This model suits organisations with constrained rack space or branch sites where power/cooling budgets matter, yet who still want enterprise-class manageability and upgrade headroom.
Key Features
AMD EPYC 7251 8-core (2.1 GHz) processor delivers eight physical cores in a 1-socket server footprint.
Four hot-plug LFF (3.5″) drive bays enable high-capacity storage options for backup, file services or bulk-VM hosts.
Embedded HPE Smart Array E208i-a (12 Gb/s SAS) controller provides RAID functionality for SAS/SATA media.
HPE iLO 5 management engine with Intelligent Provisioning facilitates remote server health monitoring, firmware updates and fleet management.
Compact 1U chassis with 500 W non-hot-plug power supply reduces rack space and cooling demands for edge/branch deployments.
