HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 six-core processor running at 3.4 GHz. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across 24 DIMM slots and includes two 146 GB 15K RPM SAS drives managed by a Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB flash-backed write cache. Dual 500 W redundant hot-swap power supplies support continuous operation in data-centre environments.

Workload fit

This system suits buyers who need strong single-thread performance from six high-frequency cores and hardware RAID with flash-backed cache for latency-sensitive databases or virtualisation hosts. It does not suit buyers who want more storage capacity than two 146 GB drives provide, nor teams that require a second processor installed to reach the 36-core maximum or 3 TB memory ceiling.

Deciding specification

The installed memory ceiling is 32 GB because only one processor is populated; each CPU unlocks 12 DIMM slots, so the full 3 TB maximum and 24-slot count require the second socket to be filled. This constraint decides whether the server can grow with the workload or must be replaced.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the DL380 Gen9 chassis provide for future expansion?

The chassis has 16 SFF bays, and an optional bay 3 can add 8 more for a total of 24.

What is the typical power draw of the dual 500 W redundant supplies when the server runs continuously?

Each supply is rated at 500 W; actual draw depends on workload but the redundant pair shares the load.

Does the Smart Array P440 controller require a separate battery or capacitor module for its 4 GB flash-backed write cache?

The 4 GB FBWC module includes an onboard capacitor pack, so no separate battery is needed.
