Purpose-built 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 delivers a single Intel Xeon E5-2623 v3 quad-core processor at 3 GHz with 32 GB of DDR4 ECC memory installed. Two 146 GB 15K SAS drives provide fast local storage through the Smart HBA H240 controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 5. This configuration suits small-business virtualization, dedicated application hosting or edge compute tasks that need dense 1U density.

Sustained workload behaviour

Redundant hot-swap 550 W power supplies keep the platform running during a module failure without interruption. The C610 chipset and 16 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to the installed 32 GB limit per processor, maintaining bandwidth under continuous VM or database loads. Dual-processor capability supports up to 36 total cores for heavier parallel workloads when a second CPU is added.

Build and connectivity implications

Eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays populate the front panel with two bays occupied by the supplied 15K SAS drives and trays included. The Matrox G200 graphics chip provides basic console output for local management. Rack-mount rails fit standard 1U cabinet spacing, while the hot-swap power design simplifies maintenance without pulling the chassis from the rack.

Questions about this item

How loud does the 550W power supply run when the server operates continuously?

The redundant hot-swap 550W power supplies share load and keep fan speed lower under steady load, reducing noise compared with a single supply running at higher RPM.

Which rails or brackets do I need to mount this 1U chassis in my rack?

The unit includes standard 1U ProLiant Gen9 rack ears; you supply the rack and any sliding rail kit compatible with HP Gen9 1U servers.

Can the H240 controller use the 146GB 15K SAS drives together with older 6Gbps SATA SSDs I already own?

Yes, the H240 supports mixed 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA devices on the same backplane, so existing SATA SSDs can join the array.
