Transcoding with hardware or software?

I just picked up a used sever with the following specs,

 

HP Proliant DL380G6 Server

Intel Xeon x2 – E553 @ 2.53GHz (4 cores x2)
144G RAM
8x 3TB SAS (24TB total)

2x 750W PSU

4x 1G Nic

 

I honestly know nothing about Xeon processors other than to know these are older ones. Will they do hardware transcoding with emby? I bid on it at a local electronics recycler on a whim and was quite surprised when I won it for $45.00.... It seems to be running just fine other than being a power hog and noisy as hell until I can replace the fans.

 

How can I tell if emby is transcoding with software or hardware?
