SERVER PLUS INSIGHTS
HPE DL360 Gen10 Plus with Dual Xeon Gold 6342: 48 Cores and 256GB for NT$230,000 Before Tax
Enterprise server procurement does not always require an NT$800,000 to NT$1.2 million new-server budget. This DL360 Gen10 Plus provides a deployable dual-socket platform with 48 cores and 256GB memory for NT$230,000 before tax.
2026-08-24 · Server Plus
An HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 Plus is arriving with two Intel Xeon Gold 6342 CPUs, 256GB DDR4-3200 ECC RDIMM, a P408i-a RAID controller, and dual 1600W power supplies. Expected price: NT$230,000 before tax.
48 Cores and 256GB Memory for NT$230,000
This HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 Plus uses two Intel Xeon Gold 6342 processors for 48 cores and 96 threads, paired with 256GB of DDR4-3200 ECC RDIMM memory. For virtualization, databases, ERP, file services, monitoring, and consolidated enterprise applications, available cores and memory often have a more direct operational impact than simply selecting the newest CPU generation.
The expected price is NT$230,000 before tax. Rather than concentrating most of the budget on one new server, a business can direct the difference toward storage, networking, backup, licenses, or a second HA node. That is often the more practical path to availability.
Newer than R640 and DL360 Gen10, with DDR4 Platform Economics
DL360 Gen10 Plus uses third-generation Intel Xeon Scalable 63xx processors and DDR4-3200 memory. Compared with Dell PowerEdge R640 or earlier DL360 Gen10 platforms, it provides higher core density and memory bandwidth.
Current-generation R660, R670, and equivalent new systems can quickly raise the total budget once CPU, DDR5, storage, and support are included. For mainstream enterprise workloads, a mature DDR4 platform can still provide sufficient performance while preserving funding for HA, backup, and storage design.
- Virtualization and consolidated application hosts
- Databases, ERP, Active Directory, and enterprise applications
- Backup, monitoring, file, or project-specific nodes
- Two-node HA planning within a controlled budget
Expected Configuration
This is a 1U rack server. Storage, networking, and memory expansion can be confirmed against the intended workload before delivery.
- HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 Plus, 1U rack server
- Intel Xeon Gold 6342 x2, 48C / 96T total, 2.8GHz / 3.5GHz
- 256GB DDR4-3200 ECC RDIMM, 16GB x16
- 300GB SAS x2
- HPE Smart Array P408i-a RAID controller
- Dual redundant 1600W 220V power supplies
Confirm the Workload, Not Only the Model Number
Whether a server is suitable depends on planned VM count, CPU utilization, memory requirements, database IOPS, storage capacity, network interfaces, and redundancy design. A processor generation or a new-product label alone does not show whether the available budget can complete the deployment.
Server Plus can confirm storage, RAID, NICs, memory, pre-delivery testing, and warranty terms so the equipment arrives aligned with the deployment plan.
FAQ
Is this suitable for VMware or Proxmox virtualization?
It is suitable for evaluation as a virtualization host. Actual VM capacity depends on each VM’s CPU, memory, storage IOPS, HA, and backup requirements.
Are two 300GB SAS drives sufficient?
They are appropriate as system disks or a baseline test configuration. Virtualization and database deployments should plan SSD or SAS capacity, IOPS, RAID, and backup objectives separately.
Can memory, disks, or NICs be changed?
Available memory, storage, RAID, and network options can be confirmed against inventory and requirements, with compatibility and testing scope agreed before delivery.
