HPE P72982-005 — ProLiant DL380 Gen11 4514Y MR408i-o NC 8×SFF Server (128GB)

What it is

P72982-005 is an HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 preconfigured 2U enterprise rack server designed for virtualization, application hosting, infrastructure services, and general compute workloads.
This configuration includes an Intel Xeon 4514Y processor, 128 GB of DDR5 memory, an HPE MR408i-o hardware RAID controller, and an 8×SFF (2.5") hot-swap drive chassis. It uses Network Choice (NC) networking flexibility so you can choose the appropriate NIC/OCP adapter for your environment.

Why buyers pick P72982-005 (plain English)

Balanced enterprise compute: The Intel Xeon 4514Y delivers reliable multi-core performance for everyday business and virtualization workloads.

128 GB RAM included: Plenty of memory for larger VM densities, databases, or memory-intensive applications right out of the box.

SSD-ready storage layout: Eight SFF hot-swap bays make it easy to build high-performance flash tiers (boot, datastores, cache).

Hardware RAID included: The MR408i-o controller provides proven RAID levels for data protection and performance.

Network Choice flexibility: Pick the exact NIC/OCP adapter (1G/10G/25G, etc.) that matches your switch fabric.
