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.
