2U rack server with dual Xeon E5-2670v3

The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads. It ships with two twelve-core Xeon E5-2670v3 processors at 2.3 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 memory. A Smart Array P440 controller with 4 GB FBWC manages the included 146 GB 15K SAS drives. Redundant 500 W hot-swap power supplies support continuous operation.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense compute.

This server suits teams running virtualisation clusters, databases or general-purpose applications that benefit from 24 cores and 48 threads. The 24 SFF bays allow storage expansion within the chassis. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or rendering should look elsewhere, as the only graphics output is a Matrox G200eH2. The installed 16 GB of RAM also limits immediate memory-intensive tasks until more DIMMs are added.

24 DIMM slots define maximum memory growth

The platform provides 24 DDR4 DIMM slots, 12 per processor, supporting registered ECC modules up to 64 GB each. This architecture sets the practical ceiling for memory capacity and determines how far the system can scale for workloads that demand large in-memory datasets.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2× 146GB SAS drives in the 24 SFF bays, and which step is often missed?

Slide each 2.5" drive into its tray until the latch clicks, insert the tray into any front bay until it locks, then create the logical drive in the P440 BIOS before the OS installer runs; skipping the RAID creation step leaves the drives invisible to the installer.

What maintenance will the 4GB FBWC module on the P440 controller need over time?

The flash-backed write cache uses a super-capacitor that holds charge for up to 48 hours; after several years it may no longer sustain the cache during power loss, so plan to replace the FBWC pack when the controller reports a capacitor health warning.

Which limit appears first when the dual 12-core Xeons run sustained heavy workloads?

The installed 16GB DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots fills quickly, so memory capacity becomes the bottleneck before the two 500W redundant power supplies or the 12Gb SAS backend reach their limits.
