Dual 16-core Xeon server for dense virtualisation

The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 packs two Xeon E5-2698 v3 processors running at 2.3 GHz, each with 16 cores and 40 MB cache, backed by 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets IT teams consolidating workloads onto a 2U rack footprint with eight 2.5-inch drive bays ready for SAS or SATA media. Integrated Intel I350 and X540 adapters provide two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports out of the box.

Verify rack depth power

The chassis measures 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighs 40 units, so confirm your rack depth and weight rating accommodate it. Two 500 W Flex Slot power supplies are installed; ensure your PDU connectors and circuit capacity match. Drive bays accept 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives but caddies are not included, and the P440 controller requires compatible cables for your chosen backplane layout.

Dual 500 W supplies share load for quiet steady

Redundant Flex Slot units operate well below peak in typical virtualisation loads, keeping fan speeds moderate and acoustic output low in a data-centre aisle. The P440 SAS controller and dual Xeons draw predictable power, so thermal headroom remains generous even when all eight bays are populated. iLO Advanced remote management lets you monitor temperatures and power draw without opening the rack.

Questions about this item

What components are included with the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 8SFF and which items must be purchased separately?

The server ships with two Xeon E5-2698v3 processors, 256GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, a P440 SAS controller, dual 500W power supplies, Intel I350/X540 2x 10GbE + 2x 1GbE network card and iLO remote management. Drive bays are empty; 2.5" SATA or SAS drives and rail kit are sold separately.

How do I decide between the 8SFF chassis and other drive-bay options for this DL380 Gen9?

The 8SFF chassis supports up to eight 2.5" drives. Choose it when you need high drive density in a 2U rack space. If you require 3.5" drives or fewer bays, select the LFF or 4SFF variants instead.

What does the 2.3 GHz base clock on the dual Xeon E5-2698v3 CPUs mean for real-world performance?

Each processor runs 16 cores at 2.3 GHz base with 40 MB cache, giving 32 cores total. Expect strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualization, databases and compute workloads; single-thread speed matches the 2.3 GHz base frequency.
