Rack server for virtualised workloads

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 occupies 2U of rack space and ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2670 v3 twelve-core processor running at 2.3GHz. Eight gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory are installed across 24 DIMM slots, leaving headroom for heavy virtualisation or database tasks. Dual 500W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation.

Sustained load behaviour with B140i controller

Under steady demand the B140i software RAID manages two 500GB 7.2K SATA drives in RAID 0, 1, 5 or 10 without a dedicated hardware cache. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics controller handles basic console output while CPU cores remain available for compute threads. Thermal design supports both processors at full utilisation when a second Xeon is added.

Installation notes for 8-bay SFF chassis

The eight 2.5-inch drive bays accept the supplied trays; additional bays or NVME options require separate kits that fit only in specific bay positions. Memory population follows a 12-slots-per-processor rule, so DIMMs must be balanced when expanding beyond the factory 8GB. Rail kits and cable management arms are not included and must be sourced to match the rack depth.

Questions about this item

How much power do the two 500W redundant supplies draw when the server runs continuously?

The dual 500W hot-swap supplies share the load; typical draw depends on the Xeon E5-2670 v3 12-core CPU and 8GB DDR4 configuration, so actual consumption varies with workload.

Which rails or mounting kit do I need to install this 2U rack chassis in my cabinet?

The unit is a standard 2U rack form factor; you must supply compatible square-hole or threaded-hole rails that match your cabinet depth.

Can the B140i controller manage the existing 500GB SATA drives together with older 3Gbps SATA disks I might add?

The B140i software RAID supports SATA only and can mix 6Gbps and 3Gbps drives in RAID 0, 1, 5 or 10 across the 8 SFF bays.
