HPE HPE ProLiant DL20 Gen11 — Full Technical Specifications
The DL20 Gen11 is HPE's compact single-socket rack server: the smallest ProLiant that still racks, built for branches, for edge sites and for the kind of hosted environment where a customer gets a machine rather than a slice of one. It is a cheap way to put something genuinely serviceable in a cabinet.
We list it as a new build and as refurbished stock.

Full Specifications
The fan row is the one people miss, and on this Gen11 model it matters: cooling here is neither hot-plug nor redundant, so a fan failure is an outage rather than a warning. That is normal for the class and worth knowing before the machine goes somewhere unattended. Against it, the power row does offer proper Flex Slot supplies, which is unusual this far down the range. The slot line combines an expansion slot, an OCP seat and a dedicated storage position, so networking and a controller can both be fitted without competing — read it before assuming the single slot is all there is. Bays are few in either format.
