HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 24B SFF Xeon E5-2609 v3 1.9GHz 96GB DDR4 P440 4GB FBWC

24-bay SFF rack server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 occupies 2U of rack space and provides 24 small-form-factor drive bays for 2.5-inch drives. A single Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9GHz is installed, with capacity for a second CPU. Memory is fixed at 96GB DDR4 across the 24 DIMM slots.

Suits dense storage workloads, not GPU tasks

This configuration targets environments that need many local drives behind a hardware RAID controller, such as virtualisation hosts or backup repositories. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics with 16MB video memory and the absence of PCIe GPU clearance make it unsuitable for graphical or compute acceleration workloads. Buyers requiring high single-thread performance or GPU support should consider alternative platforms.

Memory capacity capped at 96GB

Although the platform supports up to 3TB with two processors and higher-capacity modules, this unit arrives with all 24 slots populated to reach 96GB and cannot accept additional memory without removing existing DIMMs. The installed DDR4 ECC registered modules operate at speeds determined by the E5-2609 v3 memory controller. Expanding beyond this limit requires a different server or DIMM replacement.
