HP 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 E5-2643 v3 six-core processor running at 3.4GHz and 8GB of DDR4 memory. Dual 500W redundant hot-swap power supplies provide resilience for continuous operation.

Suits compute-heavy tasks needing fast cores

This configuration suits workloads that benefit from high per-core frequency and low-latency 15K SAS storage, such as database instances or virtualisation hosts with modest memory footprints. Buyers who need larger installed memory, additional processors or NVMe support should look at other configurations. The 8-bay chassis limits internal drive count without extra cages.

Single Xeon E5-2643 v3 at 3.4GHz with six cores

The installed processor delivers six cores and twelve threads at a 3.4GHz base frequency, setting the performance ceiling for single-threaded and lightly threaded applications. Adding a second compatible CPU can double the core count to twelve, but the current specification defines the immediate capability.

Questions about this item

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

The server has 24 DDR4 DIMM slots in total. With 8 GB installed, the remaining slots are available for expansion using registered ECC modules up to 64 GB each.

Which component limits sustained throughput first, the drives or the controller?

The two 600 GB 15K SAS drives operate at 6 Gbps, while the H240ar controller supports 12 Gbps SAS, so the drives reach their transfer ceiling before the controller does.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get with both 500 W power supplies running continuously?

Redundant 500 W hot-swap power supplies and multiple system fans keep the 2U rack chassis within normal data-centre thermal and acoustic limits during all-day operation.
