HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF 1x Xeon E5-2697 v4 384GB DDR4 rack server

HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF single-socket server

This HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 rack server arrives with one Intel Xeon E5-2697 v4 processor running at 2.3 GHz and 18 cores. It includes 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and an HPE Smart Array P440 SAS RAID controller. The 8SFF chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch SAS drives, which are not installed. Remote management is provided by HPE iLO Advanced.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing large memory

The single-socket configuration and 384 GB DDR4 capacity fit dense virtualisation, database or middleware workloads that benefit from high core count and memory bandwidth. A second processor socket is free for future expansion up to the 3 TB platform maximum. Buyers who require dual-socket performance immediately or who need drives pre-installed should look elsewhere.

384 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory decides fit

The installed 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is the decisive specification for memory-bound applications. It uses the DDR4 generation only; other DDR generations are not compatible. The P440 SAS controller manages the eight-bay SAS backplane, and the system ships without storage drives.
