Capacity and form factor

This HP ProLiant DL380 G9 is a 2U rack server with sixteen 2.5-inch SAS drive bays. It arrives with a single six-core Xeon E5-2643v3 running at 3.4GHz, 96GB of DDR4 memory, two 1TB 7.2K SAS drives, and a Smart Array P440 controller with 4GB FBWC. Dual 500W redundant power supplies are fitted.

Who it suits and who it does not

The configuration suits workloads that need high core frequency and hardware RAID across a moderate drive count, such as database instances or virtualisation hosts that benefit from the installed FBWC. It does not suit buyers who need a second processor, GPU acceleration, or an operating system licence, as none are included or described.

Memory ceiling

The system provides 24 DIMM slots and is already populated to the listed maximum of 96GB with the current processor, so no further memory expansion is possible without a CPU change.

Questions about this item

Does the box include trays for all 16 bays or only for the two installed 1 TB SAS drives?

Trays are included with the two installed drives; the remaining bays require separate tray purchases.

Should I pick the single E5-2643 v3 at 3.4 GHz or add a second processor to reach the 36-core maximum?

The server ships with one six-core E5-2643 v3; a second socket is empty and supports another compatible Xeon for up to 36 total cores.

With 96 GB already installed across 24 DDR4 slots, what does the 96 GB maximum mean for future upgrades?

The 96 GB installed fills the supported capacity for this processor; adding memory requires a second processor to unlock the remaining slots.
