DL525 Gen13 Platform at a Glance

• Form factor: 1U rack, 42.9 mm high and 448 mm wide at the rear; 820 mm deep as the EDSFF server and 946 mm deep as the Front FHFL PCIe server, measured from the chassis ear to the power supplies

• Memory: 16 DDR5 DIMM slots on 16 channels, one DIMM per channel, RDIMM and MRDIMM; HPE states a maximum of 4.0 TB of RDIMM at 8000 MT/s and 2.0 TB of MRDIMM at 12800 MT/s
• Drive bays: two chassis types — the EDSFF CTO server with 20 EDSFF E3.S 1T NVMe bays, and the Front FHFL PCIe CTO server with 8 E3.S 1T bays plus four single-width or two double-width front FHFL PCIe slots for GPUs
• Storage controllers: HPE MR216i, MR408i and MR416i Gen11 in OCP (-o) and PCIe plug-in (-p) form, the Smart Array E208e-p SR Gen10 external controller, and the NS204mff hot-plug NVMe boot device
• Networking: no embedded ports — one default rear OCP 3.0 slot (x8), one optional front OCP 3.0 slot (x8 or x16), and PCIe 6.0 stand-up slots for Ethernet, InfiniBand, DPU and Fibre Channel adapters
• Expansion: up to three PCIe 6.0 slots on the EDSFF server and up to seven on the Front FHFL PCIe server (slots 5 and 6 are the default), with rear and front riser kits to suit
• Power and cooling: up to two HPE M-CRPS Titanium hot-plug power supplies from 1000W to 3200W AC plus 1300W and 2200W -48VDC kits; eight performance fans, with standard or performance heat sinks matched to processor wattage and a direct liquid cooling option
• Management: HPE iLO 8 with a dedicated 1Gb rear port and a front USB Type-C service port, UEFI Class 3, and embedded TPM 2.0

This is a single-socket AMD server, and the one processor decides the rest of the build. The DL525 Gen13 takes one 6th Gen AMD EPYC 9006 SP7 processor, and that processor serves all 16 DDR5 DIMM slots and all 96 PCIe 6.0 lanes, and through its wattage sets the heat sink the chassis must carry. HPE quotes every memory and PCIe figure per processor because there is only one. Choose the processor page first; memory, cooling and power follow from it.

DL525 Gen13 Parts FAQ

What processors does the HPE ProLiant DL525 Gen13 use?
One 6th Gen AMD EPYC 9006 SP7 series processor. HPE lists seven processor kits for it, from the 64-core EPYC 9586F at 500W to the 256-core EPYC 9996 at 600W, and every one supports up to 4 TB of memory, 16 memory channels and 96 PCIe 6.0 lanes.

How much memory does the DL525 Gen13 support?
HPE states 4.0 TB as 16 x 256 GB RDIMM at 8000 MT/s, and 2.0 TB as 16 x 128 GB MRDIMM at 12800 MT/s. The server has 16 DIMM slots on 16 channels, one DIMM per channel, and the supported populations are 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 16 DIMMs.

How many drives does a DL525 Gen13 hold?
It depends on the chassis. The EDSFF CTO server has 20 EDSFF E3.S 1T NVMe bays; the Front FHFL PCIe CTO server has 8 E3.S 1T bays alongside its front GPU slots. HPE quotes the maximum internal storage as 614.4 TB, as 20 x 30.72 TB E3.S SSDs, plus 960 GB of hot-plug boot storage as 2 x 960 GB.

Does the DL525 Gen13 have built-in network ports?
No. HPE lists the network ports as none, with a choice of OCP 3.0 or stand-up PCIe adapters instead. One rear OCP 3.0 slot is standard, and a front OCP 3.0 slot is optional.

Is the DL525 Gen13 a two-processor server?
No. It is a single-socket platform - one 6th Gen AMD EPYC 9006 SP7 processor, one heat sink, and 16 DIMM slots all served by that processor. HPE quotes every memory and PCIe figure for this server per processor because there is only one.

Which DL525 Gen13 parts need the Front FHFL PCIe chassis?
The front GPU accelerators and their riser. HPE places the RTX PRO 6000 (two, double width) and RTX PRO 4500 (four, single width) at the front, where the x2 PCIe 16-slot front riser kit lives; the NVIDIA L4 fits the rear slots of either chassis, up to three. The two chassis also take different rail kits and cable management arms.
