HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF 2x Xeon E5-2680 v3 256GB DDR4 rack server

Dual Xeon E5-2680 v3 server

The HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF chassis holds two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors running at 2.5 GHz. Each CPU provides twelve cores and 30 MB cache for a total of twenty-four threads. The system ships with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed. It is aimed at businesses that need dense compute in a 2U rack footprint.

Dual 500 W supplies and iLO

Two 500 W Flex Slot power supplies share the load and provide redundancy during normal operation. The HPE Smart Array P440 SAS controller manages up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays without drives installed. Integrated Intel I350 and X540 network adapters deliver two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports. Remote management uses HPE iLO Advanced for out-of-band control.

Sustained load on twenty-four threads

Under continuous multi-threaded workloads both processors maintain their 2.5 GHz base frequency across all twelve cores. The 3 TB maximum memory ceiling allows future expansion well beyond the factory 256 GB. The eight-bay SAS backplane and P440 controller support RAID arrays that scale with storage demand. Buyers who require pre-populated drives or GPU acceleration must add those components separately.
