Server identity

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 processor with eight cores running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 ECC memory and two 500 GB 7.2 K SATA drives managed by the onboard B140i software RAID controller. The chassis includes redundant 500 W hot-swap power supplies and a Matrox G200eH2 graphics controller for basic video output.

Storage interface limit

The B140i controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 but only with SATA drives; SAS and NVME devices are not supported on this controller. The eight small form factor bays accept 2.5 inch SATA drives and the installed pair delivers 1 TB of raw capacity. Additional bays can be added through optional bay kits, yet the controller itself remains restricted to SATA connectivity.

Memory ceiling

The server arrives with 8 GB installed across 24 DIMM slots, but the specification lists the maximum memory capacity as 8 GB, so no further DDR4 modules can be added. Buyers who need more memory must choose a different platform because this unit cannot exceed the stated limit.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2630 v3 or add a second processor?

The board supports up to 2 processors and 36 total cores; a second E5-2630 v3 doubles threads to 16 virtual cores and unlocks the second set of 12 DIMM slots.

What does the 2.4 GHz rating deliver in actual workloads?

Eight cores at 2.4 GHz with hyper-threading give 16 threads for virtualisation or database tasks; memory runs up to 2400 MT/s depending on the processor capability.

How does the B140i SATA RAID controller limit drive performance?

The B140i handles RAID 0/1/5/10 on SATA only; it caps throughput to the 6 Gbps SATA link and does not support SAS or NVME drives.
