HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server system built for data-centre workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4GHz and 48GB of DDR4 memory. The chassis supports a second processor for up to 36 total cores.

Smart Array P440 SAS RAID limits

The installed Smart Array P440 controller with 4GB flash-backed write cache manages two 146GB 15K 6Gbps SAS drives in the front bays. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the 24 SFF drive bays. Maximum memory capacity is capped at 48GB with the current single-processor configuration.

Redundant power and 24-bay density

Dual hot-swap 500W power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation. The 2U chassis fits 24 small-form-factor drive bays with an optional rear cage for two more. Integrated Matrox G200eH2 graphics handles basic display output without a discrete GPU.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 48GB configuration or add a second processor to reach higher memory capacity?

The system ships with 48GB DDR4 installed across 24 DIMM slots. Adding a second Xeon E5-2630 v3 unlocks the remaining 12 slots, letting you scale toward the 3TB maximum with 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB or 64GB registered ECC modules running up to 2400MT/s.

What does the 2.4GHz eight-core Xeon E5-2630 v3 deliver in a live workload?

Eight physical cores at 2.4GHz with Hyper-Threading provide 16 logical threads, giving strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualisation, databases and general-purpose server tasks while fitting within the 2U power and thermal envelope.

How does the P440 4GB FBWC controller's 12Gb/6Gb SAS interface limit real-world drive speed?

The controller negotiates 12Gb/s SAS links, but the installed 146GB 15K drives operate at 6Gb/s, so sustained throughput is capped at the drive's native 6Gb/s rate; faster 12Gb/s SAS SSDs or HDDs can utilise the full controller bandwidth.
