Dual-socket Xeon server for dense 3.5-inch storage
The HPE DL380 Gen9 chassis holds up to 12 large-form-factor drive bays and ships with two Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors running at 2.6GHz. Fourteen cores per CPU and 35MB of cache per socket deliver strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualisation hosts or database clusters. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory are installed across two 16GB modules.
Expandable storage and networking foundation
A Smart Array P440ar controller with SAS expander manages the SATA backplane so every bay can be populated without extra cabling. Two 800W hot-plug power supplies provide redundancy while freeing internal space for additional drives or PCIe cards. Integrated Intel I350 and X540 adapters expose two 10GbE and two 1GbE ports for flexible network segmentation.
Steady output under continuous demand
Firmware and BIOS are updated to the latest stable release before a full burn-in verifies thermal stability across both sockets. iLO Advanced remote management lets operators monitor sensor data and power cycles without physical access. The 12-bay airflow design keeps component temperatures consistent during prolonged compute or storage workloads.

Questions about this item
What thermal or power limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2690 v4 CPUs run at 2.6 GHz all day?
Two 800W Flex Slot hot-plug power supplies are installed; sustained full-load draw will hit the 800W per-supply rating before thermal throttling activates.
How loud and hot does the 12-bay chassis get during continuous operation?
The 12 LFF chassis uses variable-speed fans that ramp under load; expect noticeable airflow noise and warm exhaust when both 14-core processors and the P440ar controller run continuously.
Which drives and caddies must I already own to populate the 12 LFF bays?
You need 3.5-inch SATA drives and Gen9-compatible drive caddies; the P440ar SAS controller and expander connect directly to the backplane.
