Target Server Workloads
The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack-mount server system designed for virtualisation, database and general compute tasks. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2650V4 processors, each running at 2.2GHz with 12 cores and 30MB cache. Installed memory totals 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered RAM across the available slots.
Fit and Alternatives
This configuration suits IT teams that need a dual-socket platform with high core count and large memory capacity for multi-tenant workloads. Organisations requiring more than four 3.5-inch drive bays, a different RAID controller, or a single-socket design to reduce licensing overhead should consider other chassis options.
Deciding Specification
The chassis provides exactly four 3.5-inch large form factor bays served by an HPE Smart Array P440 SAS controller with SATA support. If the deployment demands more internal spindles or a controller with additional ports, this model will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item
How does the 256 GB of DDR4 memory perform in a dual-processor server?
The 256 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory is split across both Xeon E5-2650V4 processors, giving each CPU direct access to its own channels for lower latency and higher throughput in virtualization or database workloads.
What does the P440 SAS controller cap in practice?
The HPE Smart Array P440 SAS controller supports up to 4 LFF drives at 12 Gb/s per lane, limiting total array bandwidth to the controller's PCIe 3.0 x8 host link and the attached SATA or SAS drive speeds.
What are the exact dimensions for rack planning?
The chassis measures 36 inches deep, 24 inches wide and 10 inches high, weighing 40 pounds, and occupies a standard 2U rack space with front-to-back airflow.
