HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U 12 LFF 2× E5-2630 v3 64GB DDR4 2× 600GB SAS H240ar

Dual Xeon E5-2630 v3 server for dense storage

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack system equipped with two eight-core Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots and two 600 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a Smart HBA H240ar controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This configuration suits organisations that need high core counts and fast local storage in a standard rack footprint.

Redundant power and twelve 3.5-inch drive bays

Dual 500 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation. The chassis offers twelve large-form-factor bays for 3.5-inch SAS drives, with optional rear cages that can add three more LFF or two SFF bays at the cost of a riser slot. The integrated Matrox G200eH2 graphics handles basic console output, while the H240ar controller delivers 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA connectivity for the installed and future drives.

Verify rack depth, memory limits and OS requirements

Before ordering, confirm that your rack can accommodate a 2U chassis with redundant power supplies and that your infrastructure supports SAS cabling for the H240ar controller. The installed 64 GB already reaches the processor-dependent maximum of 64 GB, so no further memory expansion is possible with these CPUs. No operating system is included; plan for a separate licence and installation media.
