The planner now links chassis topology, processor power class, DIMM population, drive media, RAID/HBA path, boot device, GPU slots, cooling mode, OCP/PCIe networking, ambient target and PSU headroom. Rules are sourced from current Dell manuals, HPE QuickSpecs, Lenovo Press guides and Supermicro product documentation.

Before you order
- E3.S EC1 drives require the EDSFF chassis and CPU-direct cabling. They are not interchangeable with E1.S or 2.5-inch U.2/U.3 carrier options.
- Factory-only bundles and cages are not verified field-upgrade kits. Confirm existing hardware and any proposed expansion before ordering.
- The two required 12EDSFF expansion kits need an exact order-PN and contents check. Selecting a cage PN alone does not close this requirement.
- Capacity shown is raw drive capacity, before RAID, formatting and reserved space. Confirm operating system, software RAID entitlement, firmware, cooling, power and current availability.

Configuration checks
This planner is for DL380 Gen11, not DL380a Gen11. The same GPU name does not make another server brand’s option interchangeable.
GPU quantities depend on drive layout, cooling and available slots. Include both retained hardware and new items.
Liquid-cooling kits shown here are factory-installed options. Confirm the facility connections, cooling distribution and complete installation with our team.
Availability, condition and complete-system compatibility are confirmed with your quotation.

Compatibility & installation
- Controller mode, cage type and cabling determine usable drive interfaces.
Configuration planning
Build the full picture of your installation.
Use the selectors above to prepare your list. Include existing parts and installation constraints so missing accessories and incompatible combinations can be discussed before ordering.
Choose the exact platform
Select the full server or network model. Closely named models and chassis variants may have different slots, power and accessory requirements.
Select parts and requirements
Add component quantities and complete the available installation fields. For networks, include link speeds, optics and software requirements.
Review and share the list
Address flagged conflicts, keep any open questions and prepare the configuration text. Share the draft with your sales contact for a complete offer.
Server planning
Plan beyond CPU, memory and capacity.
- Memory population
- Account for the number of installed processors, DIMM generation, capacity, ranks and the model-specific slot arrangement.
- Storage installation
- Identify the drive interface and physical format, backplane, controller, carriers and cables. Include boot storage as a separate requirement.
- Power & thermal requirements
- Confirm AC or DC input, available voltage, PSU selection, fans, heatsinks and inlet conditions. Complete-system power capacity still needs review.
- Expansion & mechanical parts
- Account for risers, adapter positions, rails and other accessories. A part-number match does not confirm that a slot remains available.
Network planning
Connect the hardware and software requirements.
Ports & topology
Define the role of each switch and the links between devices. Keep management, stacking and data links separate in the requirement.
Choose a network modelOptics & cabling
Specify link speed, distance, fiber or copper media, connector and any breakout requirement. Confirm the exact module and software support.
Explore connectivityLicenses & support
Check feature entitlement, purchase unit, term and target model. A support contract is not a substitute for a required software license.
Plan a networkConfiguration questions
Know what the list does—and what needs confirmation.
Does a list without conflicts certify the whole system?
No. Checks cover the listed options and entered requirements. The complete system, firmware, power budget, software and installation still need confirmation.
Should I include parts already installed?
Yes. Include retained components when planning the final system so population, power, slot and accessory requirements are considered.
What if my exact platform is not selectable?
Use the catalog or parts finder and prepare the equipment list for review. Do not choose a similar model as a substitute for an exact compatibility check.
Has my request been sent when I save it?
No. The current form keeps a draft on your device. Share the prepared list with your sales contact using the contact details provided.
Discuss your requirements
Ready to review the complete configuration?
Keep the selected list and open questions together. Confirm supply, installation requirements and commercial terms with our team.
