2U Rack Server with Dual Xeon E5-2660

The HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 is a 2U rack-mountable system equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 processors at 2.2GHz, delivering 16 cores and 32 threads. It includes 32GB of DDR3 memory across four 8GB modules. The chassis supports up to 768GB maximum capacity via 24 DIMM slots with Advanced ECC and Online Spare features. It ships without any hard drives installed.

Verify Rack Space and Power Before Ordering

Confirm the rack cabinet provides 2U of vertical clearance and sufficient airflow for a 2U server. The unit includes two 750W hot-plug redundant power supplies requiring compatible PDU connections. Ensure the Intel C600 Series Chipset matches the intended workload and operating system support. Network infrastructure must accommodate the integrated 1Gb 4-port 331FLR Ethernet adapter.

Expands with PCIe Slots and SAS Storage Bays

Three PCIe expansion slots allow additional controllers, network adapters or accelerators. The HP Smart Array P420i with 1GB FBWC supports RAID 0, 1, 1+0, 5 and 5+0 across SAS hot-swap 2.5-inch drive bays. No media drives are included. The Matrox G200 graphics provides basic video output for local management. Redundant power supplies free up budget for storage or expansion cards.

Questions about this item

What components are included in the box and which storage parts must be purchased separately?

The server ships with dual Xeon E5-2660 processors, 32GB DDR3 in four 8GB modules, a Smart Array P420i controller with 1GB FBWC, a 4-port 331FLR Ethernet adapter, dual 750W redundant power supplies and a Matrox G200 video chip. No hard drives are installed; 2.5-inch SAS drives must be bought separately for the hot-swap bays.

Which memory capacity should I choose for this 24-slot DDR3 system?

The board holds 24 DIMM slots and supports up to 768GB. The current 32GB (4 x 8GB) configuration leaves 20 slots free, so you can add matched DDR3 kits in 8GB, 16GB or 32GB densities to reach the maximum without removing the factory modules.

What does the 2.2GHz Xeon E5-2660 rating mean for actual throughput in this 2U rack server?

Each of the two CPUs provides 8 cores and 16 threads at 2.2GHz with 20MB cache and a 95W TDP, giving 16 cores and 32 threads total. The C600 chipset and 24 DDR3 slots feed data to those cores, so multi-threaded workloads scale across both sockets while the P420i RAID controller handles storage I/O without bottlenecking the processors.
