Key Features

Everything you need in one device

🚀

Intel Xeon 6 — E-Core & P-Core

Supports Intel Xeon 6 Efficient Core (E-Core) processors up to 144 cores (6780E, 330W) for throughput-intensive workloads, and Performance Core (P-Core) processors for frequency-sensitive applications. DDR5 at 6400 MT/s at 1DPC.

🧠

DDR5 — 6400 MT/s, Up to 8 TB

32 DIMM slots across two sockets support HPE DDR5 Smart Memory RDIMM up to 256 GB per DIMM, reaching 8 TB maximum. Speed: 6400 MT/s at 1 DIMM per channel (1DPC), 5200 MT/s at 2DPC.

🧩

Intelligent Multi-Purpose Front Cage

The new DL360 Gen12 front cage design supports SFF, E3.S EDSFF, front RAID1 OS boot device, and front OCP NIC cards from the same cage positions — maximising storage and networking flexibility in 1U without sacrificing airflow.

🛡️

HPE iLO 7 Security Enclave

iLO 7 introduces a new hardware-based Security Enclave within the iLO ASIC for more secure storage of server encryption keys, preventing tampering. Supports NIST and CNSA 2.0 quantum-resistance requirements for future-ready security.

💧

Liquid Cooling Ready

Supports closed-loop liquid cooling (CLLC) and direct liquid cooling (DLC) to handle high-TDP Intel Xeon 6 processors beyond 270W — enabling performance without acoustic and thermal constraints of air cooling.

⚙️

Smart Chassis Configuration

DL360 Gen12 Smart Chassis feature in One Config Advanced (OCA) provides extended thermal configuration and high scalability for high-power CPUs and high-bandwidth networking, reducing setup time through intelligent cable management.

About the HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen12

The HPE ProLiant Compute DL360 Gen12 is the most significant generational update to HPE's 1U 2-socket platform in years. Built around Intel Xeon 6 processors — available in both Efficient Core (E-Core) and Performance Core (P-Core) variants — the DL360 Gen12 delivers up to 144 cores per socket, enabling workload consolidation that would previously have required multiple servers.

Memory bandwidth and capacity reach new heights: 32 DIMM slots support HPE DDR5 Smart Memory up to 8 TB at 6400 MT/s (1 DIMM per channel), compared to 5600 MT/s maximum on the previous Gen11 platform. For applications with high concurrency — large in-memory databases, AI inference, and analytics — this bandwidth improvement delivers measurable throughput gains.

The new multi-purpose intelligent front cage is one of the standout mechanical innovations. Rather than fixed-function bays, the DL360 Gen12 front cage accommodates SFF drives, EDSFF E3.S NVMe drives, an OS boot device (NS204i-u v2), or front OCP NIC cards — all in the same physical positions. This allows configuration flexibility without chassis changes, and the Smart Chassis feature automates the associated thermal and cabling management.

Security advances are substantial: HPE iLO 7 introduces a Security Enclave — a hardware-based vault within the iLO ASIC that stores server encryption keys in tamper-resistant hardware. The DL360 Gen12 supports NIST and CNSA 2.0 quantum-resistance requirements through secure firmware signing, positioning it for long-term use in security-sensitive environments.
