Matched-pair PSUs for every DL380 generation, from base wattage to GPU-ready units.
The DL380 is HPE's volume 2U platform, and its power options track its long production run: Common Slot supplies on older generations, Flex Slot from Gen9 onward, with no cross-compatibility between the two. Wattages run from 460W and 500W base units up to 1400W and 1600W options for GPU and full drive-cage builds. Both units in a redundant pair must be the same wattage and efficiency rating, and hot-plug bays let you replace a failed supply without powering down. The safest way to order is by the spare part number printed on the PSU handle, since several visually similar units exist at the same wattage. We stock current and end-of-life generations, match part numbers free, and ship in-stock units same day on orders placed before 12 PM EST.
Match the wattage already installed unless you are adding load. Full drive cages, high-TDP processors and GPUs push requirements toward the high-wattage units, while base configurations run on the smaller supplies. Send us your serial number and we will pull the wattage HPE shipped in that configuration.
No. Common Slot supplies fit the older DL380 generations and Flex Slot fits Gen9 onward. They are physically different, and within each family the unit still has to be supported on your specific generation.
No. Replace the failed unit with an identical part and the pair stays supported. In a redundant configuration the swap is hot-plug, so the server keeps running. If the failed unit's label is unreadable, match the surviving supply's part number instead.
