HPE P71680-005 — ProLiant DL380 Gen11 4509Y MR408i-o NC 8×SFF Server

What it is

P71680-005 is an HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 preconfigured enterprise server designed for virtualization, application hosting, and general compute workloads.
This configuration includes an Intel Xeon 4509Y processor, an HPE MR408i-o RAID controller, and an 8×SFF (2.5") hot-swap drive layout, all in a 2U rack form factor with Network Choice (NC) networking flexibility.

Why buyers pick P71680-005 (plain English)

Balanced Gen11 performance: The Intel Xeon 4509Y delivers solid single- and multi-threaded compute for general enterprise workloads.

SSD-friendly 8×SFF layout: Eight hot-swap SFF bays make it easy to build high-performance flash storage tiers (boot, datastores, app data).

Hardware RAID included: MR408i-o provides robust RAID support for data protection and performance optimization.

Network Choice flexibility: Networking is selected to match your environment (1G/10G/25G, etc.) instead of fixed ports.

Proven enterprise platform: DL380 is a workhorse rack server that scales from SMB to large data center deployments.
