Frequently Asked Questions
What is the total raw compute capacity of this server, and what workloads does it handle well?
The dual Intel Xeon E5-2660 V4 processors contribute a combined 28 cores / 56 threads at a 2.0GHz base clock with Turbo Boost up to 3.2GHz. This configuration handles virtualization (VMware, Hyper-V), database hosting, NAS/backup server roles, and media transcoding workloads effectively. It is not optimized for GPU-accelerated or high-frequency trading workloads.
Can the 48GB DDR4 RAM be expanded, and what is the maximum supported memory?
The HP DL380 G9 platform supports up to 3TB of DDR4 LRDIMM across 24 DIMM slots. The included 48GB is a starting configuration — additional registered ECC DDR4 DIMMs can be added, though the specific DIMM speed and rank compatibility must be verified against HP's QuickSpecs for this generation.
What does the HPE Smart Array P240 controller provide, and what RAID levels does it support?
The P240 is a 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller with dedicated cache. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and 50 configurations, enabling you to trade between raw capacity and redundancy across the four 12TB SAS drives. Without a RAID battery backup unit (not confirmed included), write cache may be disabled by default.
What does "renewed" mean for this server, and what should buyers verify before deployment?
Renewed means refurbished — the unit has been tested and reconditioned. Buyers should verify the iLO remote management license status, confirm the P240 cache/battery backup module is present, and test drive health via HPE Smart Storage Administrator before deploying into production.
What operating system does this server ship with?
It ships with Windows Server 2012 Evaluation, which is time-limited. For production deployment, a licensed OS — Windows Server 2019/2022 or a Linux distribution — will need to be installed separately.
