HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 24 SFF Xeon E5-2670 v3 12C 2.3GHz 48GB DDR4 P440 4GB FBWC

Built for dense rack workloads

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server equipped with a single twelve-core Xeon E5-2670 v3 running at 2.3GHz and 48GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets IT teams that need high core density and large memory capacity in a standard two-socket chassis for virtualisation or database tasks. Builders who need a second processor from day one or who require installed solid-state drives should look elsewhere.

Smart Array P440 with flash-backed write cache

The integrated P440 controller brings 4GB of flash-backed write cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across twelve-gigabit and six-gigabit SAS links. This hardware RAID layer accelerates write-heavy workloads and protects in-flight data during power loss without relying on battery-backed cache. The server ships without an operating system, so administrators must supply their own hypervisor or OS licences.

Twenty-four small-form-factor bays

The front panel holds 24 hot-swap 2.5-inch drive trays with screws included, and an optional rear cage can add two more bays. Dual 500W hot-swap power supplies provide N+1 redundancy for continuous uptime. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics core with 16MB video memory handles basic console output only, leaving all expansion slots free for additional networking or storage controllers.
