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 E5-2670 v3 twelve-core processor running at 2.3GHz and 16GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Two 500GB 7.2K SATA drives and a B140i software RAID controller provide baseline storage redundancy.

B140i software RAID limited to SATA drives

The onboard B140i controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 but only for SATA devices. SAS, NVME or mixed arrays are not supported by this controller. Eight 2.5-inch SFF bays are populated with two drives, leaving six bays available for additional SATA capacity. A second processor can be added to reach the 36-core maximum.

Tool-less rails and redundant power simplify

The server includes tool-less sliding rails for standard rack mounting and dual 500W hot-swap power supplies for redundancy. Memory expansion uses 24 DIMM slots, twelve per processor, supporting DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s. The B140i RAID limitation means builders needing hardware RAID or NVME support must add a dedicated controller.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2670 v3 or add a second processor for my workload?

The server ships with one 12-core 2.3 GHz Xeon providing 24 threads; a second socket is available on the C610 chipset if you need up to 36 total cores.

What does the 16 GB DDR4 figure mean once the server is running?

16 GB is installed across the 24 DIMM slots; the E5-2670 v3 runs DDR4 at up to 2400 MT/s, and the platform can scale to 3 TB with additional modules.

How does the B140i SATA RAID controller limit drive performance?

The B140i supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 on the two 500 GB 7.2 K SATA drives; it is a SATA-only software RAID, so SAS or NVMe devices cannot use this controller.
