Product Features
Technical Overview
This ProLiant MicroServer Gen11 is engineered with the Intel C262 chipset, supporting a single Intel Xeon E-2434 processor running at 3.40 GHz with 12 MB of cache. The quad-core architecture delivers balanced performance for file serving, application hosting, and virtualization workloads.
Memory configuration utilizes DDR5 SDRAM with Error Correcting Code (ECC) protection, ensuring data integrity in business-critical operations. The system ships with one 16 GB module installed in a four-slot architecture, supporting both registered and unregistered DIMMs up to 128 GB total capacity.
Storage connectivity is handled by a Serial ATA/600 controller with RAID support, enabling data protection configurations across the four available 3.5" large form factor drive bays. Expansion capabilities include two PCIe slots (one PCIe 5.0 and one PCIe 4.0) for adding network, storage, or specialized accelerator cards.
