HPE DL380 Gen9 12-Bay Server

The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processor running at 2.2 GHz with 22 cores and 55 MB cache. The chassis supports up to twelve 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives via a Smart Array P440ar controller with expander. 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed across the available DIMM slots.

Suited For And Not Suited For

This configuration suits organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity for virtualisation, database or analytics tasks. The twelve-bay LFF chassis provides substantial raw capacity for backup repositories or media archives. Buyers who require a second processor for maximum throughput or who need 2.5-inch drive bays for higher spindle counts should look at alternative chassis options.

Deciding Specification 384GB DDR4

The installed 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is the critical figure for workload sizing. It determines how many virtual machines, database buffers or analytics datasets can reside in RAM simultaneously. The system board supports a maximum of 3 TB when fully populated across two processors, so this single-socket build leaves significant headroom for future expansion.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis or a smaller drive cage for this DL380 Gen9?

The 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis gives you the full complement of large-form-factor slots; choose it when you need maximum capacity with SATA or SAS hard drives, and select a smaller cage only if your workload fits in fewer bays.

What does the Xeon E5-2699 v4's 22 cores at 2.2 GHz deliver in this server?

Twenty-two cores running at 2.2 GHz provide 44 threads for heavily threaded workloads such as virtualisation, databases or render farms, with 55 MB cache reducing latency on large data sets.

How does the P440ar SAS controller with expander limit drive performance?

The P440ar connects all 12 bays through a 12 Gb/s SAS expander, so each SATA or SAS drive shares that aggregate bandwidth; sequential throughput per drive is capped by the SATA 6 Gb/s link, while random IOPS scale with the number of active spindles.
