HPE DL360 Gen11 vs Lenovo SR630 V3

A specification-by-specification comparison of the HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen11 and the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 V3, built from HPE’s and Lenovo’s own documents. 3 headline measures favour the DL360 Gen11 and none favour the SR630 V3, and 56 processors appear in both lists.

Bottom line. DL360 Gen11 leads on storage density, network throughput. Neither vendor publishes benchmarks for these machines, so every call here is made on what their documents state.

The measures that decide it

Each row is a figure both vendors publish. Bars show the split between the two; a badge marks the larger figure, which is not always the better buy — a shallower chassis or a lower power ceiling can matter more.

02 — Verdict

Which one, and why

Drawn from the measures above and each model’s own data sheet. Neither vendor publishes benchmark results for these servers, so nothing here claims one is “faster”.

Choose the DL360 Gen11 if…

  • Drive bays: 20 against 16 on the SR630 V3
  • Largest power supply: 2,200 W against 1,800 W on the SR630 V3
  • Fastest network option: 400 GbE class against 200 GbE class on the SR630 V3
  • Two sockets and 32 DIMM slots in one rack unit: up to 64 cores per processor and 8 TB of DDR5, with 4 TB behind each socket.

Choose the SR630 V3 if…

  • Two sockets, 32 DDR5 slots and an 8 TB memory ceiling in 1U — the same ceiling Lenovo gives the 2U SR650 V3.

07 — Questions

DL360 Gen11 vs SR630 V3, answered

Is the DL360 Gen11 or the SR630 V3 the faster server?

Neither document publishes benchmark results, so this page compares what they do state. The DL360 Gen11 lists 58 processors up to 64 cores at 385 W; the SR630 V3 lists 84 up to 64 cores at 385 W. Fully populated that is 128 cores against 128.

Which holds more memory?

The DL360 Gen11 has 32 DIMM slots and a stated ceiling of 8.0 TB. The SR630 V3 has 32 and 8 TB.

Which takes more drives?

DL360 Gen11: 20 bays across 5 documented layouts. SR630 V3: 16 across 17. Counts include rear and mid-chassis positions where the vendor documents them.

Can either take GPUs?

DL360 Gen11: up to 3 accelerators, 0 double-wide cards listed. SR630 V3: up to 3, 0 double-wide listed.

Do they share any processors?

Yes — 56 processors appear in both documents, including the Intel Xeon Platinum 8593Q. That makes a like-for-like build possible on either server.

Where these figures come from. DL360 Gen11: HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen11 QuickSpecs (Version 48 - 08-Sep-2026) (HPE document). SR630 V3: Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 V3 Server Product Guide (publication date is not printed in the text export) (Lenovo document). Each claim on this page is derived from those documents, checked page by page on the two data sheets, and carries no pricing.
