Server configuration

The HP ProLiant DL380 G9 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Xeon E5-2670 v3 processors, each offering twelve cores at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and two 600 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC. Dual 500 W redundant power supplies and 16 SFF drive bays complete the chassis.

Suitable workloads and limits

This system suits environments that need dual-socket compute density and hardware RAID for SAS storage. Buyers who need more than 16 GB of memory must populate additional DIMM slots up to the 24-slot maximum. The installed Matrox G200eH2 GPU provides only basic console output, so workloads requiring GPU acceleration are not supported.

Deciding specification

The Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the SAS backplane. If the deployment requires a different RAID feature set or a controller without flash-backed write cache, this server will not match the requirement.

Questions about this item

Should I add more DDR4 modules to reach the 3 TB maximum or stay with the 16 GB installed?

The board has 24 DDR4 slots and supports up to 3 TB using 64 GB modules; the 16 GB installed leaves all slots free for expansion.

What does the 2.3 GHz Xeon E5-2670 v3 clock mean for real workloads?

Two 12-core CPUs at 2.3 GHz give 24 physical cores and 48 threads with Hyper-Threading, suited for virtualisation and database tasks.

How does the P440 controller’s 12 Gb/s SAS link affect the 600 GB 15 K drives?

The P440 runs at 12 Gb/s but the fitted drives are 6 Gb/s SAS, so the array operates at the drives’ 6 Gb/s ceiling.
