Server identity

This HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server fitted with one Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor running at 2.3GHz and ten cores. It ships with 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and an HPE Smart Array P440 SAS controller. No drives are installed, leaving the eight 2.5-inch bays ready for SATA or SAS media.

Who it suits

The configuration suits virtualisation hosts, database nodes or backup targets that need dense memory capacity and flexible drive selection. Buyers who require a second processor, more than eight drive bays or a controller that supports interfaces beyond SAS and SATA should evaluate a different platform.

Deciding specification

The single installed Xeon E5-2650 v3 provides ten cores at 2.3GHz with 25MB cache, and the chassis supports a second identical processor for future expansion. This core count and clock speed determine whether the server meets the compute demands of your workload.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor and what step is often missed?

Align the processor with the socket triangle, lower the retention bracket evenly, and torque the heat-sink screws in a cross pattern to 10 in-lbs; skipping the cross-pattern torque causes uneven contact and thermal throttling.

What maintenance will the 384GB DDR4 memory configuration need over time?

Run the built-in memory test in iLO after every firmware update; replace any DIMM that logs correctable errors above the threshold before they become uncorrectable failures.

What limit appears first when the P440 SAS controller drives eight SATA drives at sustained write load?

The controller's 2GB write-back cache fills first, forcing writes to flush at the SATA drive speed and dropping throughput until the cache drains.
