Dual Xeon E5-2643v3 2U server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server with two six-core Xeon E5-2643v3 processors at 3.4GHz and 16GB of DDR4 ECC memory. It includes a Smart HBA H240ar controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays. Redundant 500W hot-swap power supplies are fitted.

Upgrade from single-socket or Gen8

Replacing a single-socket server or an older Gen8 unit adds a second processor and doubles memory channels, lifting multi-threaded throughput for virtualisation and database workloads. The jump is worthwhile when current hardware saturates CPU cores or memory bandwidth and the workload scales across 24 threads.

Fits dense virtualisation, not GPU compute

This configuration suits buyers who need high core density and large memory capacity in 2U for hypervisor hosts or memory-intensive applications. It is not for buyers who require GPU acceleration, NVMe boot drives, or a pre-installed operating system.

Questions about this item

What rack height and drive bay size does this 2U server require?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and provides eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays.

How is the Smart HBA H240ar controller installed and what step is often missed?

The H240ar plugs into a dedicated internal slot; the step often missed is connecting the SAS cables from the controller to the backplane before powering on.

What memory type and maximum capacity should I plan for future upgrades?

The system uses DDR4 ECC Registered modules and supports up to 3TB across 24 DIMM slots, 12 per processor.
