HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U Rack Server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 six-core processor running at 3.4GHz and 64GB of DDR4 memory. Dual 600GB 15K SAS drives and a Smart Array P440 controller with 4GB flash-backed write cache handle storage. Redundant 500W power supplies support continuous operation.

Suits single-socket compute.

This configuration fits buyers who need strong single-thread performance and fast local storage in a 16-bay 2U chassis. The installed CPU uses six cores with hyper-threading for 12 threads, and the memory slots are fully populated at 64GB. Organisations planning to scale beyond one processor, exceed the current memory ceiling, or add GPU accelerators should evaluate a different starting point.

64GB DDR4 installed across 24 slots caps immediate

The server arrives with all 24 DIMM slots occupied to reach 64GB total capacity. Adding more memory requires removing existing modules, which limits cost-effective growth without replacing the current kit. The P440 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the 16 SFF drive bays, and the Matrox G200eH2 provides basic video output for management.
