Compact 1U dual-socket server for balanced workloads

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 fits two Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors in a single rack unit with redundant hot-swap power. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 16 DIMM slots and two 1 TB 7.2 K SAS drives managed by a Smart HBA H240 controller. No operating system is included.

Suited for cloud and general-purpose deployments

This configuration works for virtualisation hosts, web tiers or batch processing where core count and storage redundancy matter more than single-thread speed. The six-core CPUs run at 1.6 GHz and memory tops out at 8 GB as delivered, so buyers who want higher clock rates, larger initial RAM or more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays should consider other configurations.

Dual Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors set

Each CPU provides six cores at 1.6 GHz, defining the threading capacity and memory-channel limits of the system. The C610 chipset and H240 controller support RAID 0, 1 and 5 on SAS or SATA media, while the Matrox G200 handles basic video output.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum number of cores this DL160 G9 can reach when fully populated with E5-2600 v3 or v4 processors?

The chassis supports up to 36 total cores using Intel E5-2600 v3 and v4 processors.

How loud and hot does the 1U server get when the dual 1.6 GHz Xeons and 550 W supply run continuously?

Dual 550 W redundant hot-swap power supplies and 1U airflow keep the system within thermal limits during sustained workloads.

Which drive trays and cabling are required to add more 2.5-inch SAS drives to the eight SFF bays?

The eight SFF bays include trays with installed drives; additional drives ship with their own trays and connect to the H240 controller.
