HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 12LFF Server

The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built for virtualisation and database workloads. It ships with one Xeon E5-2660v3 processor running at 2.6GHz and 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis supports up to twelve SATA or SAS drives. A second processor socket remains available for future expansion.

Installation notes and common issues

The unit includes two 800W hot-plug power supplies and sliding rails for standard rack mounting. Firmware and BIOS are updated to the latest stable release before dispatch. Drive caddies are not included with the empty bays and must be sourced separately. The Smart Array P440ar controller requires compatible SAS expander cabling for full twelve-bay operation.

The specification that decides fit

Maximum memory capacity reaches 3TB across 24 DIMM slots when both processor sockets are populated. Current configuration uses 384GB in a single-processor layout. Buyers needing more than 384GB with one CPU should verify per-socket DIMM limits before ordering additional modules.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 10-core Xeon E5-2660v3 and 384GB DDR4 are recognised after power-on?

During POST the BIOS will display two 2.6GHz processors if the second socket is populated, and total memory of 384GB; iLO Advanced then shows identical counts in its health view.

Which drives and rail kit must I source separately for the 12-bay 3.5" chassis?

The server ships with a P440ar SAS controller and two 800W power supplies but no drives and no rail kit; add up to twelve 3.5" SATA drives and order the rail kit separately.

Should I choose the single 2660v3 now or plan for a second processor later?

The board supports two processors; one 10-core 2660v3 is installed, leaving the second socket open for a matching 2660v3 when workload demands more cores.
