HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U Rack Server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server designed for data-centre workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz and 48 GB of DDR4 memory. The chassis includes redundant hot-swap power supplies and a Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC.

Suits single-socket deployments not multi-socket

This configuration suits buyers who need a single-socket server with hardware RAID and 15 K SAS storage for structured data. It does not suit deployments requiring two processors from day one, because only one CPU is installed. It also does not suit buyers who want solid-state storage or an operating system included, as the drives are mechanical SAS and no OS ships with the unit.

48 GB DDR4 installed memory is the fixed ceiling

The server arrives with 48 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across its 24 DIMM slots. The specifications list the maximum memory capacity as 48 GB for this configuration, so no further expansion is possible without replacing the existing modules. Buyers needing more than 48 GB must look at a different configuration.

Questions about this item

Will the 48 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory need replacement or can I add more later?

The server has 24 DIMM slots, 12 per processor, and supports up to 3 TB total DDR4 ECC registered memory. The installed 48 GB uses some slots, leaving room to add 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB or 64 GB modules up to the 2400 MT/s limit.

Which limit appears first when the two 146 GB 15K SAS drives run sustained write workloads with the P440 4 GB FBWC?

The 6 Gbps SAS interface and 15 000 RPM drive speed set the sustained write ceiling, while the 4 GB flash-backed write cache absorbs bursts until the drives reach their native throughput.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get with both 500 W redundant supplies loaded all day?

Redundant 500 W hot-swap supplies share load, so each runs at lower utilisation, reducing fan speed. The 2U rack design directs airflow front-to-back across the Xeon E5-2609 v3 and memory, keeping internal temperatures within spec during continuous operation.
