Dual Xeon E5-2630 v3 server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server equipped with two eight-core Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots and includes the B140i software RAID controller for SATA drives. Dual 500 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation in data centre environments.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing core density

This server suits teams building virtualisation hosts or compute clusters that benefit from 16 physical cores and 32 threads in a compact 2U form factor. Buyers who need hardware RAID with cache protection or NVMe boot drives should look elsewhere because the B140i controller supports only SATA RAID 0/1/5/10. Organisations requiring GPU acceleration or fibre-channel connectivity will also need a different platform.

Tool-less rails and hot-swap bays simplify

The chassis uses tool-less sliding rails and eight front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays so drives and power supplies can be swapped without shutting down. Memory population rules require balanced installation across the 12 slots per processor; ignoring this reduces usable capacity. The B140i RAID must be configured in UEFI before installing an operating system, otherwise the logical volume will not appear to the installer.

Questions about this item

Does the server include drive trays for the 8 SFF bays so I can install my own 2.5" SATA or SAS drives?

Yes, the supplier notes that two drive trays with screws are included; additional trays are required to populate all eight bays.

Will the B140i controller recognise the existing 2.5" SAS drives I plan to reuse?

The B140i is a SATA-only software RAID controller and will not manage SAS drives; a dedicated SAS RAID card would be needed for those.

How can I confirm both Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors are active after installation?

The system BIOS and any operating system will show 16 physical cores and 32 logical threads when both CPUs are functioning correctly.
