HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 2U rack server Xeon E5-2609 2.4GHz 8GB DDR3 670857-S01

HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 2U Rack Server

This HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 is a 2U rack server system built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 processor running at 2.4 GHz with four cores and four threads. It ships with 8 GB of DDR3 memory installed as one 8 GB module and supports up to 768 GB across 24 DIMM slots with Advanced ECC and Online Spare features. The chassis includes eight small-form-factor SAS/SATA drive bays, an HP Smart Array P420i/ZM controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 1+0, and a quad-port 1 Gb Ethernet adapter.

Suits single-socket deployments needing dense

This configuration suits environments that need a second processor slot available for future growth and eight hot-plug drive bays in a compact 2U form factor. The dual 460 W redundant power supplies provide N+1 redundancy for continuous operation. Buyers who require installed drives or a second CPU populated from the factory should look at alternative configurations. The three PCIe slots handle additional networking or storage controllers as workloads evolve.

Single Xeon E5-2609 with room for second CPU

The defining specification is the single Intel Xeon E5-2609 2.4 GHz processor paired with a motherboard that accepts a second identical CPU when demand increases. This 80 W chip delivers four cores and 10 MB of cache on the Intel C600 series chipset. Memory capacity scales to 768 GB using DDR3 modules across the 24 available slots. Storage starts empty, letting you populate the eight SFF bays with the SAS or SATA drives your workload requires.
