It comes with 1 × Intel Xeon 6517P 16-core 3.2GHz processor, 64GB DDR5-6400 memory, an 8SFF chassis, HPE MR408i-o storage controller, HPE NS204i-u v2 480GB NVMe boot device, and dual 1000W Titanium hot-plug power supplies.
Why buyers pick P89239-005 (plain English)
16-core 3.2GHz Xeon processor: The included Intel Xeon 6517P runs at 3.2GHz with 16 physical cores, making it a strong choice for workloads that need both solid core count and high per-core performance.
64GB DDR5-6400 included: Ships with 2 × 32GB DDR5 SmartMemory, giving you a useful starting configuration with plenty of expansion headroom.
Dedicated NVMe boot device: The included NS204i-u v2 480GB NVMe boot device keeps the operating system separate from the main front drive bays.
8SFF storage flexibility: Supports up to eight Small Form Factor drives, allowing you to build the main storage tier around SAS, SATA, or NVMe drives depending on configuration.
Enterprise RAID controller: The MR408i-o includes 4GB cache and hardware RAID support.
Redundant Titanium power: Dual 1000W Titanium hot-plug PSUs provide efficient, redundant power for production environments.

Where it fits (and when to choose something else)
Perfect for:
- Virtualization hosts
- Database servers
- Business-critical applications
- High-clock-speed enterprise workloads
- General data-center compute
- Customers needing dedicated boot storage
- Environments that need more expansion than a 1U server
Choose something else if:
- You need more CPU cores → choose a higher-core Xeon 6 configuration
- You need a smaller 1U footprint → consider a DL360 Gen12
- You need main storage drives included → choose a preconfigured model with SSDs or HDDs
- You need more than 8 front drive bays → choose a higher-capacity DL380 chassis configuration
- You need a lower-cost general-purpose server → consider a lower-clocked Xeon 6 configuration
TL;DR
P89239-005 is a 2U HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen12 server with a 16-core Intel Xeon 6517P running at 3.2GHz, 64GB DDR5-6400, 8SFF chassis, MR408i-o RAID controller, 480GB NVMe boot device, and dual 1000W Titanium power supplies — a strong configuration for enterprise workloads that benefit from high per-core performance.
