HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built for general-purpose workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2623 v3 processors running at 3 GHz, 16 GB of DDR4 memory, and two 500 GB 7.2K SATA drives. The B140i controller provides software RAID 0, 1, and 5 for SATA devices only.

Teams needing balanced compute in a 1U form factor

This configuration suits teams that need dual-processor performance in a single rack unit with redundant hot-swap power. It is not suited for buyers who require hardware RAID, SAS drive support, a discrete graphics processor, or installed solid-state storage. The Matrox G200 GPU handles basic display output only.

B140i software RAID limited to SATA drives

The storage controller supports RAID 0, 1, and 5 exclusively on SATA drives. It does not support SAS or other drive interfaces. This single constraint determines whether the server matches your storage architecture.

Questions about this item

How do I install the two 500 GB SATA drives and the B140i controller, and what step is often missed?

Slide the 2.5 inch drives into the front SFF bays, connect the SATA cables to the B140i ports on the system board, then create the RAID 0, 1 or 5 volume in the UEFI/BIOS before installing the OS — skipping the array creation step leaves the drives as JBOD.

What maintenance or replacement will the DL160 Gen9 need later?

The 550 W redundant hot-swap power supplies and the 7.2 K RPM SATA drives are the only field-replaceable mechanical parts; fan modules and DIMMs can also be swapped without tools.

What limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2623 v3 CPUs run at 3 GHz continuously?

The B140i software RAID controller supports only SATA drives at 6 Gbps, so sustained write throughput caps at the SATA link speed before CPU or memory bandwidth becomes a bottleneck.
