Dual Xeon 12-core 2U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack system built for data-centre workloads. It ships with two Xeon E5-2670 v3 processors, each with 12 cores running at 2.3 GHz, and 16 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots. Redundant 500 W hot-swap power supplies keep the platform running during maintenance or failure events.

Fits virtualisation hosts, not GPU compute

This server suits teams consolidating virtual machines or running memory-heavy databases where the P440 RAID controller with 4 GB FBWC protects local storage. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or rendering should look elsewhere because the only graphics engine is a Matrox G200eH2 with 16 MB video memory. The chassis also lacks pre-installed drives, so storage must be sourced separately.

Sixteen 2.5-inch bays define capacity

The critical spec is the 16 small-form-factor drive bays that accept 2.5-inch SAS media; the Smart Array P440 supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 across those bays. Memory can scale to 3 TB using the 24 registered DDR4 slots, but the installed 16 GB is only a starting point. Maximum processor count is two, so core count tops out at 24 physical cores with hyper-threading enabled.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC is operating correctly after installation?

During POST the controller reports its firmware version and 4 GB flash-backed write cache status; the iLO interface then shows the battery health as OK and all configured RAID volumes as optimal.

What ships with the server and which essential items are not included?

The chassis includes two E5-2670 v3 processors, 16 GB DDR4, two 500 W redundant power supplies, 16 SFF drive trays with screws and the P440/4 GB FBWC controller; drives and an operating system are not supplied.

Which memory capacity should I choose for the 24 DIMM slots?

Populate slots with matched DDR4 ECC registered modules of 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB or 64 GB up to 2400 MT/s; maximum supported capacity is 3 TB when all 24 slots are filled.
