Built for dense rack workloads

This 2U ProLiant DL380 Gen9 ships with dual Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processors at 1.9 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets teams that need a compact, redundant platform for virtualization hosts, database nodes or batch compute clusters where core density matters more than single-thread speed.

Eight-bay SAS storage with hardware RAID

The front holds eight 2.5-inch 146 GB 15 K SAS drives on a Smart HBA H240ar controller that supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual hot-swap 500 W power supplies keep the array running during a module failure, and the 24 DIMM slots (12 per CPU) allow memory growth without opening the chassis.

Replaces older 2U boxes that max out at lower core

Moving from a single-socket or previous-generation dual-socket server adds 12 total cores and 24 memory slots in the same rack footprint. The jump is worth it when workloads can use the extra threads and the 15 K SAS spindle speed, but buyers who need NVMe U.2 bays or larger drive capacities will need a different chassis configuration.

Questions about this item

What SAS speed does the H240ar controller cap the 146 GB drives at?

The H240ar controller runs 12 Gb SAS, but the installed 146 GB drives are 6 Gbps SAS, so the practical ceiling is 6 Gbps per drive.

What rail depth and bay layout does the 2U chassis need?

The 2U rack server uses 8 SFF 2.5-inch bays in the front; optional universal media bay fits bay 3 only, extra 8 SFF or 6 NVME bays fit bay 2 only.

How is the H240ar controller seated, and which cable step is often missed?

The H240ar plugs into the dedicated internal PCIe slot; the step people skip is connecting both mini-SAS cables from the controller to the backplane for all 8 bays.
