HP 705177-B21 ProLiant DL385S G8 Configure-to-Order Rack Server System

Description

The HP 705177-B21 is a ProLiant DL385S Gen8 (G8) rack server, presented as a Configure-to-Order (CTO) system. This designation means that the server is not sold with a fixed configuration but rather allows customers to select specific components such as processors, memory, storage, and network interface cards to precisely match their unique operational needs. The DL385S G8 is a 2U rack-mount server, offering a balance of compute density and expansion capabilities suitable for a wide array of enterprise applications. This server platform is typically built around AMD Opteron processors, known for their performance and efficiency in multi-core environments, making it well-suited for virtualization, database operations, and high-performance computing tasks. The Gen8 generation of ProLiant servers incorporates HP's Smart Array controllers for advanced storage management, including RAID configurations for data redundancy and performance. It also features enhanced memory support, allowing for significant amounts of DDR3 RAM to be installed, crucial for memory-intensive applications. HP's ProLiant DL385S G8 is designed with enterprise-grade reliability and manageability in mind. Features such as redundant power supplies, hot-plug hard drives, and integrated remote management capabilities (like HP iLO) contribute to high availability and simplified administration. The CTO nature of the 705177-B21 ensures that organizations can procure a server that is optimized for their specific workload, budget, and future growth requirements, making it a versatile solution for demanding data center environments.
