Server identity

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server equipped with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and two 146 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC. Dual 500 W redundant power supplies are included.

Upgrade path

This configuration replaces an older single-socket rack server that lacks DDR4 memory bandwidth and 12 Gb SAS connectivity. The jump is worthwhile when workloads need the 24 DIMM slots for future expansion up to 3 TB or require the P440 RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 support for mixed drive arrays. Buyers who need a second processor or more than 16 drive bays from day one should look elsewhere.

Interface limits

The SAS interface on the P440 controller operates at 12 Gb/s to the backplane and 6 Gb/s to the installed 15K drives, capping sustained throughput at the drive link speed. DDR4 memory runs at up to 2400 MT/s but actual speed depends on the installed processor capability. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics output is limited to basic management console display only.

Questions about this item

Does the 2U chassis accept 2.5-inch SAS trays in all 16 front bays?

Yes, the 16 SFF bays are designed for 2.5-inch SAS drives and trays are included with the two installed 146 GB 15K drives.

When installing the Smart Array P440 controller, must the 4 GB FBWC module be seated before the first power-on?

The P440 ships with the 4 GB FBWC already installed; the only required step is to connect the SAS cables to the backplane and verify the cache module LED is green.

How often should the FBWC capacitor pack on the P440 be checked, and what indicates it needs replacement?

HP recommends inspecting the FBWC capacitor pack annually; a flashing amber LED on the cache module signals the pack has reached end of life and must be swapped.
