HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U 16-Bay Server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2643v3 six-core processor at 3.4GHz and 48GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. The Smart Array P440 controller with 4GB FBWC manages RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 across sixteen 2.5-inch SAS bays. Two 1TB 7.2K SAS drives and dual 500W redundant power supplies are included.

Suits single-socket compute with room to grow

This configuration fits buyers who need a single Xeon E5-2643v3 today but want the option to add a second processor later. The sixteen SFF bays and P440 RAID controller support large SAS arrays for databases or virtualisation storage. Buyers who need installed solid-state drives, a second CPU out of the box, or GPU compute should look elsewhere because the Matrox G200eH2 provides only basic display output.

Six-core 3.4GHz Xeon E5-2643v3 decides fit

The installed processor delivers six cores at 3.4GHz with twelve threads via hyper-threading. Memory runs as DDR4 ECC registered up to 2400MT/s depending on CPU capability. If the workload demands more than twelve threads or higher base frequency, the single CPU limits performance. The sixteen-bay chassis and P440 controller remain usable, but the processor choice is the primary constraint.

Questions about this item

What does the 3.4 GHz clock speed on the Xeon E5-2643v3 mean for actual workload throughput?

The six cores run at a base frequency of 3.4 GHz and support hyper-threading for twelve logical threads, so single-threaded tasks and lightly threaded applications benefit from the high per-core speed while multi-threaded loads scale across all available threads.

How does the P440 controller's 12 Gb/s SAS link affect the installed 6 Gb/s drives?

The controller negotiates down to 6 Gb/s per drive, so the two 1 TB 7.2 K SAS disks operate at their native 6 Gb/s rate; the 12 Gb/s backplane headroom is available if faster SAS SSDs are added later.

What physical space and power connections does the 2U rackmount chassis require?

The unit occupies two rack units of height, uses two hot-swap 500 W redundant power supplies, and presents sixteen 2.5-inch drive bays at the front for the installed SAS drives and any future additions.
