HPE P60636-B21 — ProLiant DL380 Gen11 4416 + MR408i-o NC 8×SFF Server

What it is

An HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 preconfigured 2U enterprise server built for virtualization and general-purpose workloads. P60636-B21 includes an Intel Xeon Silver 4416, an HPE MR408i-o RAID controller, and an 8×SFF (2.5") hot-swap chassis. It’s a Network Choice (NC) build, so networking is selected to match your environment.

Why buyers pick P60636-B21 (plain English)

DL380 expandability: more PCIe + growth headroom than a 1U server.
Balanced Gen11 compute: Xeon Silver 4416 is a strong business/VM CPU.
8×SFF hot-swap bays: SSD-friendly layout for fast storage builds.
Hardware RAID included: MR408i-o supports clean RAID boot + datastore setups.
Network Choice flexibility: choose the NIC/OCP you actually want (1G/10G/25G).
