Server identity

This HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processor at 1.9GHz, 64GB DDR4 memory and two 146GB 15K SAS drives on a Smart Array P440 controller with 4GB FBWC. It targets buyers who need a dense 16-bay platform for legacy workloads or test environments that still run on DDR4 and SAS infrastructure. It is not for buyers who want more storage capacity than the two installed drives provide or who require a second CPU to reach the 36-core ceiling mentioned in the design.

Sustained-load behaviour

Redundant hot-swap 500W power supplies keep the system running during a module failure, while the FBWC cache on the P440 protects write data through unexpected power loss. The 15K SAS spindles deliver consistent IOPS for database or virtualisation tasks that run for hours rather than seconds, and the 24 DIMM slots allow memory to stay at the installed 64GB ceiling without further expansion.

Deciding specification

The single-socket E5-2609v3 configuration caps the server at six cores and 64GB DDR4, so the processor and memory ceiling together decide whether this unit fits the workload or a dual-processor model is required.

Questions about this item

How much power does the dual 500W redundant supply draw when the DL380 Gen9 runs continuously?

The server includes two 500W redundant hot-swap power supplies; actual draw depends on workload and PSU efficiency, not a fixed wattage.

Which rails or rackmount kit do I need to install this 2U server in a standard cabinet?

The DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rackmount chassis; compatible HP sliding rails or a universal 2U rail kit are required but not included.

Will my existing 6Gbps SAS drives work with the P440 controller in this Gen9?

Yes, the Smart Array P440 supports 12Gb and 6Gb SAS, so your current 6Gbps drives will operate at their native speed.
