Purpose-built rack server

The HP ProLiant DL380 G9 is a 2U rack server fitted with a single Intel Xeon E5-2643v3 six-core processor running at 3.4GHz. It ships with 32GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and two 500GB 7.2K SATA drives managed by the onboard B140i software RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10. This configuration suits small-business virtualisation, file serving or test workloads that need redundant power and hot-swap drive bays in a compact chassis.

Thermals power and acoustics

Dual 500W hot-swap redundant power supplies share the load, so a single supply failure does not interrupt operation. The 2U form factor provides enough internal airflow path for the installed CPU and memory to run at base frequency without aggressive fan curves under typical enterprise workloads. Acoustic output is comparable to other 2U rackmount systems and is intended for server-room deployment rather than office-desktop use.

Build integration

The chassis offers eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays, leaving six bays free for additional SATA or SAS drives. Twenty-four DDR4 DIMM slots accept up to 3TB total when a second processor is added, and the C610 chipset supports NVMe options in bay 2. A Matrox G200eH2 graphics controller provides basic video for installation and management. The server arrives without an operating system, ready for your hypervisor or OS of choice.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5-inch SATA drives and what step is often missed?

Slide each drive into one of the 8 SFF bays until the latch clicks; the step often missed is creating the RAID 0/1/5/10 volume in the B140i Software RAID utility before installing an OS.

What maintenance or replacement will the 500GB 7.2K SATA drives need later?

The two 500GB 7.2K 6Gbps 2.5-inch enterprise SATA drives are mechanical; plan to replace them when SMART attributes show reallocated sectors or after the rated workload limit is reached.

What limit appears first when the E5-2643v3 runs at 3.4GHz under sustained load?

The single six-core 3.4GHz Xeon E5-2643v3 will hit its thermal ceiling before the 500W redundant power supplies or the 32GB DDR4 memory become bottlenecks.
