Dual 12-core Xeon server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Xeon E5-2670 v3 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with 12 cores. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory are installed across 24 DIMM slots. Two 146 GB 15K SAS drives connect through a Smart HBA H240ar controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 500 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy.

Upgrade from single-socket or lower-core systems

The jump is worthwhile when workloads need more parallel threads than a single processor can deliver. Forty-eight logical cores with hyper-threading suit virtualisation hosts, database nodes and compute clusters that saturate fewer cores. The 24 DIMM slots allow memory to scale far beyond the factory 16 GB limit when applications demand it. Additional drive bays and NVMe options let storage grow without replacing the chassis.

Suits density-focused deployments

This server fits buyers who need high core counts in a 2U footprint with redundant power and hardware RAID. Organisations requiring GPU acceleration, larger single-thread performance or newer instruction sets should evaluate other platforms. Buyers who want more storage bays than the eight SFF slots provide, or who need integrated graphics beyond the Matrox G200eH2, should look at alternative configurations.

Questions about this item

What rack height does this 2U server require?

This unit occupies 2U of rack height and fits standard racks; sliding rails are required but are not included.

How are the 146 GB SAS drives installed in the 8 SFF bays?

Insert each 2.5-inch drive into its supplied tray and slide it into one of the 8 front SFF bays; the H240ar controller auto-detects them.

When should the 500 W redundant power supplies be replaced?

Replace a supply when its amber fault LED lights or iLO reports a power-supply failure; the redundant design lets you swap one unit while the server stays on.
