2U Rack Server for Data Centre Workloads
The HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre deployment. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9GHz and 32GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Dual 600GB 15K SAS drives and an H240ar controller provide the storage foundation. Redundant 500W power supplies support continuous operation.
Suited for Single-Socket Capacity Limits
This configuration fits workloads that run within one processor and 32GB of installed memory. Buyers who need a second CPU for up to 36 total cores, more than 32GB of RAM, or additional drive bays beyond the 12 LFF front slots should evaluate a different specification. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics output is intended for management consoles only.
Memory Ceiling Fixed at 32GB
The system arrives with 32GB installed and the specifications list a maximum memory capacity of 32GB, meaning no further DIMM expansion is possible on this unit. Twenty-four DDR4 slots exist physically, but the supported limit matches the factory configuration. Verify that your application fits inside this fixed ceiling before purchase.

Questions about this item
How loud or hot does this DL380 Gen9 run with its 500 W redundant supplies under 24/7 load?
Dual 500 W hot-swap supplies share the load; fan speed scales with inlet temperature and component utilisation, so sustained operation stays within HP thermal limits for a 2 U chassis.
Which DDR4 modules and drive trays must I already have to expand the 32 GB memory or the 12 LFF bays?
Expansion uses the 24 DDR4 ECC registered slots and the 12 included 3.5-inch LFF trays; additional 4 GB to 64 GB DDR4 modules and matching trays are required for more capacity.
Will the Smart HBA H240ar controller manage my existing 6 Gbps SAS drives alongside the two 600 GB 15 K drives?
Yes — the H240ar supports 12 Gbps SAS and 6 Gbps SATA, so older 6 Gbps SAS drives work at their native speed in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60.
