HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 16-bay SFF server

This 2U rack system ships new with a single Xeon E5-2643 v3 six-core processor at 3.4 GHz and 4 GB of DDR4 memory. Two 1 TB 7.2 K SAS drives are pre-installed behind a Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC. Dual 500 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy from day one.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

The 16 SFF bays and RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 support make it a fit for storage-dense workloads such as databases or virtualisation hosts that can start small and add drives later. Buyers who need large memory footprints, GPU acceleration, a second processor from day one, or more than 4 GB of installed RAM should evaluate alternative configurations.

The specification that decides fit

Maximum memory capacity is listed as 4 GB with 24 DIMM slots available, so any deployment requiring more than 4 GB of RAM at install will need additional DDR4 modules before the server can enter production.

Questions about this item

When will the 4 GB FBWC module on the P440 controller need its battery replaced?

The flash-backed write cache uses a capacitor pack instead of a battery, so there is no battery to replace during the module's service life.

Which component hits its ceiling first when all 16 SFF bays run sustained writes?

The two 1 TB 7.2 K SAS drives and the 6 Gbps SAS backplane will saturate before the P440's 12 Gbps engine or the 3.4 GHz Xeon cores.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get with both 500 W supplies loaded all day?

Redundant 500 W hot-swap supplies share the load, keeping fan speeds moderate; typical idle noise stays near 36 dBA and inlet temperature remains within ASHRAE A3 limits.
