HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U rack server 2× Xeon E5-2609v3 1.9 GHz 64 GB DDR4 2× 600 GB SAS H240ar

Dual Xeon E5-2609v3 server for virtualisation

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack system equipped with two six-core Xeon E5-2609v3 processors running at 1.9 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across the 24 available DIMM slots. This configuration suits organisations consolidating virtual machines or running memory-intensive business applications in a standard data-centre rack.

Redundant power and eight SFF drive bays

Two hot-swap 500 W power supplies provide redundancy so a single unit failure does not interrupt operation. The chassis offers eight 2.5-inch small-form-factor bays populated with two 600 GB 15 000 rpm SAS drives on a Smart HBA H240ar controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Additional bays can be added later for NVMe or more SAS capacity without replacing the server.

Fan-wall cooling keeps noise predictable

A redundant fan wall draws air front-to-rear across the processors, memory and drive cage, maintaining stable temperatures under sustained load. Acoustic output remains consistent with typical rack-row deployment where ambient cooling is managed at room level. The 500 W redundant supplies operate at high efficiency, reducing waste heat and overall power draw during normal production workloads.
