Server identity

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2670 v3 processor with twelve cores at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 4 GB of DDR4 ECC memory, a Smart Array P440 controller backed by 4 GB FBWC, and two 146 GB 15 K SAS drives in a 24-bay SFF chassis with redundant 500 W power supplies.

Fit and limits

This configuration suits teams that need a dense, hot-swap SAS platform for traditional workloads such as virtualisation hosts, database nodes, or backup targets where 15 K spindle speed and hardware RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 are valued. Buyers who need flash-only storage, GPU-accelerated compute, or a second CPU populated at delivery should look elsewhere because the unit arrives with mechanical drives, a Matrox G200eH2 graphics device, and only one processor installed.

Deciding specification

The installed memory is fixed at 4 GB DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots, so any deployment that cannot operate within that capacity until additional modules are purchased will find the server unusable for production tasks immediately.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 4 GB configuration or upgrade to the maximum 3 TB?

The unit ships with 4 GB DDR4; the board offers 24 slots and supports up to 3 TB when both processors are installed, so add matched ECC registered modules in multiples of 12 per CPU to reach your target.

What does the 2.3 GHz twelve-core Xeon deliver in this chassis?

The E5-2670 v3 runs at 2.3 GHz with 12 cores and 24 threads, giving strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualization or database workloads while fitting the 2U power and thermal envelope.

How fast can the P440 controller actually move data on the 6 Gbps SAS drives?

The Smart Array P440 with 4 GB FBWC supports 12 Gbps SAS lanes, but the installed 146 GB 15K drives are 6 Gbps, so sustained throughput will be limited to the drive link speed.
