HP ProLiant DL380 G9 2U rack server

This 2U rack server ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 six-core processors at 3.4 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 memory. It targets IT teams that need a dense compute platform for virtualisation, database or general-purpose workloads in a standard cabinet. The B140i software RAID controller supports SATA drives only.

Build quality and daily connectivity

The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays and redundant hot-swap power supplies for continuous operation. Installed storage consists of two 500 GB 7.2K SATA drives on the B140i controller with RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 options. The Matrox G200eH2 GPU handles basic video output for management consoles. Twenty-four DDR4 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to the platform limit.

Thermals, noise and power draw

Redundant 500 W power supplies share the load and maintain uptime if one unit fails. The 2U form factor uses internal airflow paths designed for data-centre cooling rather than quiet office environments. Power draw scales with CPU utilisation and the number of populated drive bays and memory slots.

Questions about this item

Which storage interface does the B140i controller support, and what RAID levels does that limit me to?

The B140i is a SATA-only software RAID controller providing RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 across the installed drives.

What drive bays and form factor must the chassis accept for the supplied 500 GB drives?

Eight 2.5-inch SFF bays are fitted; the two 500 GB 7.2K SATA drives ship in those bays with trays included.

How are additional DIMMs installed, and which slot rule is most often missed?

Populate the 24 DDR4 slots in sets of 12 per processor; the common error is adding memory to only one CPU and leaving the second bank empty.
