HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF dual Xeon server

The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2698 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz, delivering 20 cores per socket and 50 MB cache each. It is populated with 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and includes an HPE Smart Array P440 SAS controller plus Intel I350/X540 network adapters providing two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports. The 8SFF chassis accepts up to eight 2.5-inch SATA drives, though none are installed.

Ideal for virtualisation clusters

This configuration suits teams that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a 2U form factor with redundant 500 W power supplies and iLO remote management. Buyers who require pre-installed storage, GPU compute, or a newer CPU architecture should consider alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory

The installed 512 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory is the decisive specification; it determines whether the server can hold your working datasets without swapping. The system supports up to 3 TB total, so the existing capacity either meets the requirement or signals the need for additional DIMMs.

Questions about this item

How do I install the HPE Smart Array P440 SAS Controller and which step is often missed?

Seat the P440 PCIe SAS Controller firmly in its PCIe slot, connect the SAS cables to the 8 SFF backplane, then enable the controller in UEFI/BIOS — the step most often missed is creating the logical drive in the Smart Storage Administrator before installing the OS.

What maintenance will the 512GB DDR4 ECC Registered memory need later?

DDR4 ECC Registered DIMMs require no scheduled replacement; run the built-in memory test via iLO after any firmware update and reseat modules only if correctable error counts rise above threshold.

At what point does the 2x 500W Flex Slot power supply become the limit under sustained load?

With dual 500W supplies the shared output caps at 500W; sustained draw above that — for example both 20-core Xeon E5-2698 v4 CPUs at full turbo plus a full complement of 2.5" drives — will trigger throttling or shutdown.
