ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz and 48 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Dual 500 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy, and the Smart HBA H240ar controller handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across SAS and SATA drives.

Suited for virtualisation hosts

This configuration suits teams running virtualisation clusters or storage-intensive applications that benefit from 24 DIMM slots and eight 2.5-inch drive bays. Buyers who need GPU compute acceleration or integrated 10 GbE networking should look at other platforms because the server only includes a Matrox G200eH2 video adapter with 16 MB memory. The single CPU also leaves half the memory channels unpopulated until a second processor is installed.

H240ar RAID controller with 12 Gb SAS

The Smart HBA H240ar is the specification that decides fit: it delivers 12 Gb/s SAS and 6 Gb/s SATA connectivity with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. If your deployment requires a different RAID feature set, tri-mode NVMe support or an onboard 10 GbE controller, this server will not meet those requirements.

Questions about this item

How many DDR4 DIMM slots remain free for future memory upgrades?

Twenty-four DDR4 DIMM slots are available in total; twelve are used per processor, so adding a second Xeon opens twelve more slots for expansion up to 3 TB.

Which component reaches its limit first when the server runs at full load continuously?

The single E5-2609 v3 processor tops out at six cores and 1.9 GHz, so compute throughput hits the ceiling before memory bandwidth or the H240ar controller saturates.

How much heat and power should I plan for with both 500 W supplies running 24/7?

Dual 500 W redundant power supplies draw up to 500 W each at full load, so the rack cooling must handle the combined heat output of a 1 000 W maximum draw.
