HP ProLiant DL380 G9 2U Rack Server

The HP ProLiant DL380 G9 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processors at 1.9 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 24 DIMM slots. A Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC manages two 1 TB 7.2 K SAS drives in 24 SFF bays, and dual 500 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy.

Suited for general-purpose virtualisation

This platform suits teams running virtualised environments or databases that benefit from hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 on SAS media. The 24-bay chassis allows capacity to grow well beyond the factory pair of drives. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or higher single-thread frequency should look elsewhere, as the installed CPUs run at 1.9 GHz and the only graphics output is a Matrox G200eH2.

Storage controller and drive interface define

The P440/4 GB FBWC controller operates at 12 Gb/s and 6 Gb/s SAS, setting the ceiling for drive performance and RAID feature set. All 24 front bays and the optional rear cage connect through this controller, so future drive additions must be SAS. The six-core E5-2609 v3 processors also fix the maximum memory speed at 2400 MT/s, limiting bandwidth for memory-intensive workloads.

Questions about this item

What rack height and drive-bay layout does the DL380 G9 need?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and provides 24 small-form-factor 2.5-inch SAS bays with an optional rear cage for two more drives.

How are the two E5-2609 v3 processors and the P440 controller installed, and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs are pre-fitted; the P440 controller seats in a dedicated internal slot and its 4GB FBWC module must be snapped onto the controller before power-on or the cache will not activate.

When will the 1TB 7.2K SAS drives or the FBWC cache module need replacement?

The 7.2K SAS drives are rated for continuous operation; the FBWC module contains a capacitor-backed cache that typically lasts several years before the super-capacitor degrades and requires a new FBWC unit.
