Enterprise rack server for virtualisation
The HPE DL380 Gen9 8SFF chassis arrives with two Xeon E5-2697 v3 processors running at 2.6GHz, each providing 14 cores and 35MB cache. A total of 512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed across the available slots, supporting the 3TB maximum capacity. The P440 SAS controller manages up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays, though no drives are included in this configuration.
Dual 500W Flex Slot supplies handle peak loads
Two hot-plug 500W power supplies share the load, reducing strain on any single unit during normal operation. The 2U form factor at 36 by 24 by 10 inches allows standard rack airflow patterns to move heat away from the CPUs and memory modules. Integrated graphics and the Intel I350/X540 network card add minimal thermal contribution under typical virtualisation workloads.
iLO Advanced and rail kit simplify deployment
HPE iLO Advanced remote management provides out-of-band control for firmware updates, power cycling and console access without a local KVM. The P440 controller enables hardware RAID levels across SAS drives you add later. An optional rail kit secures the 40-pound chassis in standard racks, while the supplier updates all BIOS and firmware to the latest stable versions before shipment.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 2.5" drives into the 8SFF bays and what step is often missed?
Slide each 2.5" drive into a bay until the latch clicks; the step often missed is configuring the logical drive in the P440 controller BIOS before the OS sees the volume.
Which component will need replacement first under continuous operation?
The 500W Flex Slot power supplies are the first field-replaceable units to wear out under sustained load; keep a spare on site for hot-swap replacement.
What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2697 v3 CPUs run at 2.6 GHz continuously?
The chassis hits its 35 °C inlet-temperature limit first; beyond that the fans ramp to maximum and the iLO may throttle the 14-core processors to protect the 512 GB DDR4 memory.
