HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U server

This HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 memory. It includes a Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC and two 1 TB SAS hard drives in a 16-bay small-form-factor chassis. Redundant 500 W hot-swap power supplies are fitted.

Scales to 36 cores and 3 TB memory

The platform supports up to 36 total cores across two sockets and a maximum of 3 TB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. Builders who need more than 8 GB of installed memory can populate additional registered ECC modules up to 2400 MT/s. Buyers who require installed capacities beyond the 3 TB ceiling or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

Smart Array P440 with 4 GB FBWC

The storage subsystem centres on the Smart Array P440 controller equipped with 4 GB of flash-backed write cache. It manages the two supplied 1 TB 7.2K SAS drives and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the 16 SFF bays. This specification determines whether the server meets the performance and data-protection needs of the target workload.
