HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF 2x Xeon E5-2698 v4 768GB DDR4 rack server

HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF dual Xeon server

The HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF is a 2U rack-mount server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2698 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz and 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It includes an HPE Smart Array P440 SAS controller and dual 500 W Flex Slot power supplies. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays with SATA interface and ships without storage drives. Integrated graphics and HPE iLO Advanced remote management are built in.

Suits virtualization hosts

This configuration suits workloads that benefit from 40 total cores and a large DDR4 memory footprint, such as virtualization clusters, in-memory databases or high-throughput application servers. The eight-bay SATA/SAS chassis and P440 controller support RAID arrays for local redundancy. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets, direct-attached PCIe storage bays or a newer CPU microarchitecture should evaluate other platforms instead.

768 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

The single specification that decides fit is the 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory already populated across the system boards. This capacity and memory type determine whether the server can hold your working set without paging. The platform maximum is 3 TB, but only the installed 768 GB is guaranteed present at delivery.
