Compact 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 fits a standard 1U rack space and ships with two Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processors at 1.6 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 memory. A 550 W redundant hot-swap power supply is included. The Matrox G200 graphics controller provides 16 MB of video memory.

Eight SFF drive bays with SATA-only RAID

This unit offers eight 2.5-inch small form factor bays but the B140i software RAID controller handles SATA media only at RAID 0, 1 and 5. Buyers who need hardware RAID or SAS connectivity on the internal controller should look elsewhere. No drives or operating system are included.

Maximum memory capped at 16 GB

Although the chassis contains 16 DIMM slots, the installed configuration reaches the 16 GB limit with no headroom for expansion. Organisations planning to grow beyond this capacity must choose a different system.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5" drives into the 8 SFF bays, and what step is often missed?

Slide each drive into its tray, secure the included screws, then insert the tray until the latch clicks; the step often missed is tightening the tray screws before seating the drive.

What maintenance will the 550 W redundant hot-swap power supplies need later?

Keep the fan intakes clear of dust and replace a failed module by sliding it out while the server runs; the hot-swap design lets you swap units without downtime.

What limit appears first when the dual Xeon E5-2603 v3 CPUs run sustained loads?

The 550 W power budget and 1.6 GHz base clock cap performance before thermal throttling; each CPU draws its rated TDP under continuous full-load work.
