HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 16-bay SFF Server

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server designed for data centre workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 six-core processor running at 3.4GHz and 8GB of DDR4 memory. The Smart Array P440 controller with 4GB flash-backed write cache handles RAID duties across sixteen small-form-factor drive bays. Dual 500W redundant power supplies are included.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This server suits buyers who need a dense 2U platform with sixteen 2.5-inch drive bays and hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60. It is not for buyers who want drives included in the box, or for those who need an operating system pre-installed. Builders requiring more than one processor from day one or more than 8GB of memory out of the box should look at a different configuration.

The specification that decides fit

The Smart Array P440 4GB FBWC controller supports twelve-gigabit and six-gigabit SAS connectivity and the full range of RAID levels listed above. If your storage plan relies on that controller and those RAID options, this chassis matches; if you need a different controller or interface, this is not the right unit.

Questions about this item

How many DIMM slots are free for adding DDR4 memory later?

The server has 24 DDR4 DIMM slots total; 8 GB is already installed, leaving the remaining slots open for registered ECC modules up to 64 GB each.

Which component reaches its limit first during sustained heavy I/O?

The Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC is the bottleneck; its 12 Gb/s SAS bandwidth and cache size cap sustained throughput before the CPUs or memory saturate.

What is the power draw and fan noise like when both 500 W supplies run 24/7?

Dual 500 W redundant supplies share the load, so each runs at lower utilisation, keeping fan speeds and acoustic output moderate for a 2U rack chassis.
