Server identity

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 processor running at 3.4 GHz with six cores. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory and two 1 TB SAS hard drives managed by a Smart HBA H240ar controller. Redundant 500 W hot-swap power supplies are included. The chassis provides twelve 3.5-inch drive bays and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Fit and limits

This server suits teams that need a dense, reliable platform for virtualisation, database or file workloads with room to grow memory up to 3 TB across twenty-four DIMM slots. Buyers who require a second CPU from the outset, dedicated GPU compute or more than twelve front drive bays should evaluate other configurations. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics adapter is intended for management consoles only.

Deciding specification

The installed memory is capped at 32 GB even though the platform can address 3 TB, so the single specification that decides fit is whether the current 32 GB DDR4 allocation meets the immediate workload or if a larger memory purchase is required at deployment.

Questions about this item

What is the power draw of the two 500W redundant supplies when the Xeon E5-2643 v3 runs at full load all day?

The system includes two 500W hot-swap power supplies with redundancy; each unit can deliver up to 500 watts, and the pair shares the load so the server stays running if one supply fails.

Which drive trays or caddies must I already own to add more 3.5-inch SAS drives to the 12-bay front cage?

The server ships with trays for the two installed 1TB SAS drives; the remaining ten front bays accept standard HP LFF drive trays, which are sold separately if you purchase additional bare drives.

Can the Smart HBA H240ar controller manage the existing 1TB SAS drives together with older 6Gbps SATA disks in the same array?

The H240ar supports 12Gbps SAS and 6Gbps SATA simultaneously, so the installed 7.2K SAS drives and older SATA disks can coexist on the same controller using RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60.
