Rack (1U) server HP Enterprise ProLiant DL320 Gen11 Intel Xeon Silver 4510 2.4GHz 12c 1P 64GB DDR5 8x SFF 2x1000W PS

The HPE ProLiant DL320 Gen11 is a 1U, single-processor (1P) server designed for edge computing and compact data center deployments. It supports 4th and 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors with up to 60 cores and offers expanded DDR5 memory capacity up to 2 TB. The server supports PCIe Gen5 for high-speed I/O and can be configured to accommodate up to four single-wide or two double-wide GPUs in the front cage, making it suitable for GPU-accelerated workloads such as computer vision and other edge AI tasks. The system delivers a balance of performance and cost efficiency for virtualized and containerized workloads, and includes integrated management and security features for remote administration.

Advantages

The compact 1U, 1P form factor provides a cost-effective footprint for edge sites while still delivering high performance through modern Intel Xeon processors and fast DDR5 memory. PCIe Gen5 connectivity increases data transfer rates and enables multiple GPU configurations for accelerator-driven applications. Built-in HPE iLO 6 management simplifies remote configuration, monitoring, and updates. Options for NVMe M.2 boot (including hot-pluggable or internal RAID1) improve boot reliability and storage performance.

Key specifications

• Processor family: 4th and 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable (up to 60 cores, 270 W)
• Memory: Up to 16 DIMMs DDR5, up to 2 TB total, up to 5600 MT/s
• PCIe: PCIe Gen5 expansion (examples: up to 2x16 Gen5 and 1 OCP 3.0 slot)
• GPU support: Up to four single-wide or two double-wide GPUs (front cage, GPU CTO)
• Form factor: 1U rack-mount
• Power supply example: 1000 W (configured per SKU)
• Integrated management: HPE Integrated Lights-Out 6 (iLO 6)
• Boot options: Hot-pluggable or internal NVMe M.2 with RAID1 support

How to use

Install the server in a standard 1U rack position and provision it with the chosen Intel Xeon processor, memory modules, and any required GPUs or PCIe cards. Configure the boot device using internal or hot-pluggable NVMe M.2 drives and set up RAID1 if redundancy is required for the boot volume. Use HPE iLO 6 to perform out-of-band configuration, firmware updates, and monitoring. Deploy operating systems, hypervisors, or container platforms according to your workload needs and connect network and storage resources via available PCIe and OCP slots.

Recommendations

For GPU-accelerated edge AI workloads, choose suitable single- or double-wide GPU options and ensure adequate cooling and power capacity. Select DDR5 modules and processor SKUs that match your memory bandwidth and core count requirements. Use HPE iLO 6 for remote management and enable NVMe M.2 RAID1 for resilient boot configurations.
