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 a single Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 six-core processor at 3.4 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. The chassis includes twelve 3.5-inch large-form-factor drive bays and redundant hot-swap 500 W power supplies.

Sustained-load behaviour with H240ar controller

Under continuous operation the Smart HBA H240ar manages two 4 TB 7.2 K SAS drives in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60. Redundant power supplies and hot-swap bays keep the array available during drive or power-module replacement. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics core handles remote management console output without adding compute load.

Single-CPU limit and DDR4 memory ceiling

The board accepts a second Xeon E5 v3 processor to reach the 36-core maximum, but only one CPU is installed. Memory tops out at 16 GB with the current configuration; expanding beyond that requires additional DDR4 registered DIMMs across the 24 slots. Buyers who need more than 16 GB or dual-processor performance from day one should plan for extra modules and a second CPU.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the dual 500 W redundant supply run under 24×7 load?

The 2U chassis uses redundant hot-swap 500 W supplies; fan speed scales with CPU and drive thermal sensors, so sustained load increases airflow and heat output proportionally.

Which DDR4 ECC registered modules must I already have to reach the 24-slot limit?

The board accepts 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB or 64 GB DDR4 up to 2400 MT/s; 24 slots are wired, 12 per processor, so a second CPU is required to use all slots.

Will my existing 3.5″ 6 Gbps SAS drives work with the H240ar controller in the 12-bay cage?

Yes, the Smart HBA H240ar supports 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA, so 6 Gbps SAS drives connect directly to the 12 LFF bays and can be configured in RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60.
