Overview

The HP 459142-L21 is a processor kit that pairs the Intel Xeon E5410 with the HP ProLiant DL380 G5 server platform. The E5410 is a quad-core chip clocked at 2.33GHz with a 1333MHz front side bus and an 80-watt power envelope. For organizations still operating DL380G5 servers, this kit provides a straightforward path to adding processing power — whether populating an empty second socket or replacing a lower-spec processor already installed.

Sold in new bulk condition, the processor has not been previously used but ships without retail packaging, which is standard for server components sold through business channels. The DL380G5 was a widely deployed workhorse in data centers, and maintaining these systems with matched Xeon E5410 processors can extend their useful life for lighter workloads, lab environments, or non-critical infrastructure where the cost of a full platform refresh is not justified.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Purpose-built kit for the DL380G5 ensures straightforward compatibility without guesswork.
  • Quad-core 2.33GHz Xeon E5410 provides solid multi-threaded server performance for its generation.
  • 80-watt TDP keeps power consumption and heat output manageable within the DL380G5 chassis.
  • New bulk condition means unused components at a lower price than original retail packaging.

👎 Cons

  • Only compatible with the HP ProLiant DL380G5, limiting reuse if you change server platforms.
  • The E5410 is a legacy processor and does not support current instruction sets or security features found in modern Xeons.
  • 1333MHz FSB is a bottleneck compared to newer interconnect technologies, limiting memory and I/O throughput.
  • Quad-core count is modest, and upgrading to this processor only makes sense if you are committed to keeping the DL380G5 in service.

Frequently Asked Questions

This processor kit is specifically designed for the HP ProLiant DL380 G5 server. It is sold as a complete kit (part number 459142-L21) that includes what is needed for installation in that platform.
The E5410 is a quad-core processor running at 2.33GHz with a 1333MHz front side bus and an 80-watt thermal design power, based on Intel's 45nm Harpertown architecture.
This is listed as new bulk condition, meaning it is a new processor that ships without retail packaging — typically in anti-static packaging without the original retail box.
Yes, the DL380G5 supports dual processors. This kit can be used to add a second CPU or replace an existing one, though both sockets should ideally run matching processors for optimal performance.
