2U rack server for virtualisation

The HP ProLiant DL380 G9 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2670 v3 processor with twelve cores at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 24 DIMM slots. Two 1 TB 7.2K SAS drives and a Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB flash-backed write cache provide the storage foundation. Redundant 500 W hot-swap power supplies keep the platform running during a module failure.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous workloads the twelve-core Xeon maintains its 2.3 GHz base frequency across all cores, while the P440's flash-backed cache absorbs write bursts without draining battery-backed DRAM. The 6 Gbps SAS drives deliver steady sequential throughput for database logs and virtual-machine images. Redundant power supplies share the load evenly, so a single supply failure does not throttle performance. Cooling is handled by the chassis fans, which scale with inlet temperature rather than spiking on short bursts.

SAS 6 Gbps interface limits

The installed drives and backplane operate at 6 Gbps per lane, capping each drive at roughly 600 MB/s theoretical bandwidth. The P440 controller supports 12 Gbps SAS, but the current drives negotiate down to 6 Gbps. RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 are available, though rebuild times on 1 TB SAS drives extend to several hours. The 24 SFF bays allow future expansion with faster 12 Gbps drives, yet the existing two-drive configuration cannot saturate the controller's wider pipe.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the dual 500 W redundant power supply run under continuous load?

The server uses two hot-swap 500 W supplies with redundant hot-swap power; fan speed scales with inlet temperature and workload, so acoustic output rises as the CPUs and drives sustain heavy utilisation.

What infrastructure must already be in place for this 2U rack unit to operate?

It requires a standard 2U rack enclosure, two independent PDU circuits for the redundant supplies, and a SAS backplane or cabling to support the 24 SFF drive bays and the P440 controller.

Will the P440 controller and SAS drives work with older 6 Gbps SAS disks I already own?

The Smart Array P440 supports 12 Gbps and 6 Gbps SAS, so legacy 6 Gbps drives will function at their native speed while the two installed 1 TB 7.2 K drives run at 6 Gbps.
