HP ProLiant DL380 G9 2U Rack Server 2×E5-2609v3 1.9GHz 16GB DDR4 2×300GB SAS H240ar

Dual Xeon E5-2609v3 2U server

The HP ProLiant DL380 G9 is a 2U rack server equipped with two six-core Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 processors running at 1.9GHz. It includes 16GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 24 DIMM slots and two 300GB 15K 3.5-inch SAS drives. The Smart HBA H240ar controller supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60. Dual 500W redundant hot-swap power supplies are fitted. No operating system is included.

Check power, rails and drive cage layout

Verify that your rack provides the correct 2U mounting rails and that the facility power circuits can support dual 500W supplies. The chassis holds 12 LFF 3.5-inch drive bays; the installed drives occupy two bays. A rear drive cage option consumes the second riser slot, so confirm expansion plans before ordering. Memory speed depends on the installed processor capability, with DDR4 up to 2400MT/s supported.

Sustained load with redundant power and cooling

Under continuous workloads the dual 500W redundant power supplies maintain operation if one unit fails, while hot-swap capability allows replacement without shutdown. The 15K SAS drives deliver consistent throughput for sustained I/O, and the H240ar controller manages RAID parity calculations without a dedicated cache. System fans scale with thermal demand to keep both processors and memory within spec during extended runs.
