Dual Xeon E5-2643 v3 server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 six-core processors running at 3.4GHz. It ships with 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across 24 DIMM slots, reaching the maximum supported capacity for this configuration. The system targets organisations that need dense compute in a standard rack footprint.

H240ar controller and drive bays

The Smart HBA H240ar provides 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA connectivity with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Eight 2.5-inch SFF drive trays with screws are included, but no drives are installed. The chassis accepts additional bays for up to 24 SFF drives or NVMe options in specific bays, while dual 500W hot-swap power supplies deliver redundancy.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing maximum RAM

This configuration suits buyers who want the full 128GB memory limit populated out of the box and a hardware RAID controller ready for SAS or SATA arrays. It is not for buyers who want more than 128GB of RAM, who need GPU acceleration beyond the Matrox G200eH2, or who require an operating system pre-installed.

Questions about this item

Will the eight 2.5-inch drive bays need any cabling or backplane upgrades if I add SAS drives later?

The eight SFF bays connect to the H240ar controller; SAS drives plug directly without extra cabling or backplane changes.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2643 v3 CPUs run at 3.4 GHz continuously?

The 2U chassis relies on its redundant 500 W power supplies and internal fans to cool the dual six-core processors under sustained load.

How loud are the fans and how much heat does the server produce when it runs all day?

Dual 500 W redundant supplies and high-speed fans keep the 2U system stable, producing noticeable airflow noise typical for rackmount density.
