808027-B21 HPE Apollo 4200 Gen9 24 LFF Configure-to-Order Server

The 808027-B21 is the HPE Apollo 4200 Gen9 LFF configure-to-order server, a 2U Apollo server for storage-dense workloads such as object storage and Hadoop. This LFF model has 24 hot-plug LFF drive bays, with an optional 4 LFF rear cage kit (806563-B21) for four more, and optional 2 SFF or 6 SFF rear cage kits; the Apollo 4200 holds up to 28 LFF or 54 SFF hot-plug drives across its models.

Up to two Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 or v4 processors go in the server, with 16 DIMM slots for DDR4 RDIMM or LRDIMM memory; with one processor, only half the DIMM slots are available. The embedded HPE Smart Array P840ar/2G controller comes with the HPE Smart Storage Battery, and the HPE Dynamic Smart Array B140i runs in UEFI mode only. Legacy support needs an additional controller, and configure-to-order orders also select the 758959-B22 legacy mode setting.

Fans are four standard for one processor and five for two, with a redundant fan option. Expansion is two PCIe slots plus a FlexibleLOM slot, and the 2SFF and 2FHHL kit (806564-B21) adds two full-height half-length slots. The network controller is an HPE Embedded 1Gb Ethernet 2-port 361i adapter, and USB is one front, two rear and one internal. At boot the name HPE ProLiant XL420 Gen9 Server appears for the motherboard. Power supplies are 800W or 1400W Flex Slot units, and more systems are in HPE server systems.
