HPE DL360 Gen10 Base Knowledge
The HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 Rack Server is a very powerful 1U 2 Socket server supporting 24 DIMMs on a 2-socket configuration. This server has many different types of upgrades and support for many options. These options have rules that need to be followed. Like the ability to install NVDIMM or Persistent Memory. Each of these types of memory is only supported by certain Processors.
The DL360 Gen10 Rack Server can support 2 Intel Scalable Processors. Either Gen1 or Gen 2 are supported but processors can’t be mixed and any processor with a TPD 130W or over will get the Performance Heatsink (871246-B21).

When you install the 2 SFF NVMe Backplane Kit (871242-B21), it comes with a special Primary Riser that has 1 NVMe connection to support up to 2 SFF NVMe drives. This NVMe Riser also comes with both default PCI slots, x16 in slot 1 and x8 in slot 2.
For 10 NVMe chassis – A secondary Riser is not available due to the 10 x4 NVMe riser. When the 10 SFF NVMe/SAS backplane ( 867974 -B21) option is installed, NVMe drives must be installed in bays 9 and 10. The other bays support a mix of NVMe and SAS drives.
MegaRAID TRI-MODE Controller
DL360 Gen10 with Broadcom MegaRAID controllers only supports Basic Carrier (BC) SFF SAS/SATA storage devices. Do not attempt to use Smart Carrier storage devices in these DL360 models with MegaRAID controllers. Mixing of BC and SC carrier types is not allowed. NVMe is not supported with DL360 Gen10 with MegaRAID storage controllers. This CTO Server contains default SAS/SATA drive cage/backplane and tri-mode to SAS/SATA cables. There is also a 8SFF SAS/SATA PCIe Slot2 Tri-Mode Cable Kit (P55884-B21).
If you install the 2SFF SAS/SATA 12G BC Drive Cage Kit (P26435-B21). It is mandatory you install the 2SFF SAS/SATA Tri-Mode Cable Kit (P55883-B21).
HPE DL360 Gen10 M.2 Drives
The DL360 Gen10 has the normal Stand-up PCIe card that holds two M.2 Drives. But it also has a unique option of adding the M.2 2280 Primary Riser kit ( 867978 -B21). This Riser kit not only has the x16 PCIe slot but also has 2x M.2 2280 Drive slots. You can only install the 2280 Type M.2 drives with this PCIe riser. This PCIe riser is a great way to save a PCIe slot but still has the M.2 drives installed. For any major release beyond VMware ESXi 7.x, VMware will require M.2 or another local persistent device as the standalone boot option.
Want more M.2 drives, the DL360 supports the uFF Drive type as a 1xDual uFF (2x M.2) rear drive or as the optional 2xDual uFF (4x M.2) drives in the front of the chassis. If you install the Rear Drive cage you will lose an FH PCIe slot in the primary riser Slot 1.
HPE DL360 Gen10 PCIe Risers
The DL360 Gen10 Rack Server has 3 PCIe slots over two Riser Cages. The Secondary Riser has 1 Slot. The Primary Riser Cage is a butterfly riser and holds 2 Slots.
M.2 Primary Riser
The Primary Riser has a unique option to save a PCIe slot when installing M.2 Drives. If you install the Primary SATA M.2 Riser (867978-B21), you will have two M.2 Slots on the riser card. This card only supports the 2280 M.2 Type drives.
GPU Primary Riser
The GPU primary riser is the GPU Riser which has a power source on the riser card to make cabling easier for the GPU.
NVMe Drives
When you install the 2 SFF NVMe Backplane Kit (871242-B21), it comes with a special Primary Riser that has 1 NVMe connection to support up to 2 SFF NVMe drives. This NVMe Riser also comes with both default PCI slots, x16 in slot 1 and x8 in slot 2.
Rear Drives Primary Riser
Installation of the rear drive takes away the FH slot 1 from the riser to allow a single drive cage to be installed in the rear while also providing an x8 PCIe slot 2.
If a secondary full-height kit is installed, then primary PCIe Slot #2 cannot be used. Only 2 full height slots are supported. If you install a Rear drive, you will lose the Primary Riser FH Slot 1.
If you install the 10SFF Premium backplane kit (867974-B21). This kit comes with a secondary riser that has 5 NVMe ports.

HPE DL360 Gen10 Cooling
The DL360 Gen10 Rack Server has Fan Redundance for each model. When you select the first CPU, 5 fans will come with it. When you select the second processor, 2 Fans will come with it. If you need to upgrade to the Performance Fans, this kit (871244-B21) will come with 7 fans. If you choose to install the 2 NVMe front drive on the 8SFF Chassis or install the HPE DL360 Gen10 10SFF Premium Backplane Kit (867974 -B21). You will need to upgrade the fans. If you install Computation or Graphics Accelerators, you will also need to upgrade the fans.
For 4 LFF and 8 SFF chassis:
- 1 CPU – Includes 5 standard fans
- 2 CPUs – Includes 7 standard fans
For 10 NVMe Premium chassis:
- 2 CPUs – Includes 7 high-performance fans as standard
HPE DL360 Gen10 GPU / Workload Accelerator
When installing the GPU FH Primary Riser (P23271-B21) option the GPU sits in Slot1. If you want to install a second GPU or if Slot 1 is taken. You can install the FH Secondary Riser and install the GPU in Slot 3. You will need two Processors for this and upgrade the fans.
There is one small adjustment that needs to be made if you have a Type-A Smart Array card installed. You will need to install the LH controller (869083-B21) to allow the GPU to fit in slot 3. This GPU Enablement v2 Kit (P23271-B21) is not available on the 10 NVMe model. Slot 3 is taken up by the NVMe riser for direct attached drives.
HPE DL360 Gen10 Flex Slot your power!
Mixing of 2 different power supplies is NOT supported.
HPE Flexible Slot (Flex Slot) Power Supplies share a common electrical and physical design that allows for hot plug, tool-less installation into HPE ProLiant Gen10 Performance Servers. Flex Slot power supplies are certified for high-efficiency operation and offer multiple power output options, allowing users to "right-size" a power supply for specific server configurations. This flexibility helps to reduce power waste, lower overall energy costs, and avoid "trapped" power capacity in the data center.
