Rack server for virtualisation hosts

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 occupies 2U and holds up to 16 SFF bays. A single Xeon E5-2643 v3 at 3.4 GHz with 6 cores and 4 GB DDR4 is installed. The Smart Array P440 with 4 GB FBWC manages the two 146 GB 15K SAS drives in RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60. Dual 500 W hot-swap supplies provide redundancy.

Upgrade from single-socket towers

Adding a second Xeon raises the core ceiling to 36 and memory capacity to 3 TB across 24 slots. The jump pays off when current workloads saturate the six physical cores or when DDR4 demand exceeds the 4 GB baseline. Without a second CPU the extra DIMM banks remain inactive.

Slide-in rails and cabled drives

The chassis accepts tool-less rails for standard racks. Drives mount in supplied trays that click into the 2.5 inch backplane; the P440 cables route to the same plane. FBWC cache loss occurs only if the super-capacitor pack is missing or degraded, so verify the module seats firmly before powering on.

Questions about this item

What rack height and drive-bay layout does the 16-bay DL380 Gen9 need for mounting?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and provides 16 small-form-factor 2.5-inch SAS bays.

Which step is often missed when fitting the Smart Array P440 controller with its 4 GB FBWC module?

The flash-backed write cache module must be seated on the controller before the card is installed, otherwise the cache will not be recognised.

When should the 146 GB 15K SAS drives or the FBWC capacitor pack be replaced?

Replace the 146 GB drives when SMART alerts appear or performance drops, and swap the FBWC capacitor pack when the controller reports a cache-capacitor fault.
