HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 2U rack server E5-2609v3 6C 1.9GHz 8GB DDR4 2x 1.8TB SAS P440 4GB FBWC 16 SFF

2U rack server for core workloads

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 fits a standard 2U rack space and ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six‑core 1.9GHz processor. Eight gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory are installed across the 24 available DIMM slots. The system supports a second processor for up to 12 total cores when the workload grows.

Redundant power and 16 SFF drive bays

Two hot‑swap 500W power supplies provide N+1 redundancy without shutting down the rack. Sixteen small‑form‑factor 2.5‑inch SAS bays are populated with two 1.8TB 7.2K drives on an HP Smart Array P440 controller with 4GB flash‑backed write cache. RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 are all supported for flexible data protection.

Verify rack depth and memory expansion

Confirm the rack cabinet depth accommodates the 2U chassis and that the 24 DIMM slots match the DDR4 ECC registered modules you plan to add. The P440 controller uses a dedicated PCIe slot, so check remaining slot availability for additional network or storage adapters. No operating system is included, so prepare installation media separately.
