Dual Xeon 1U server for dense compute

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 fits two Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors in a 1U rack chassis. Eight cores per CPU at 2.4 GHz give 16 physical cores and 32 threads with hyper-threading. Redundant hot-swap power supplies keep the system running if one unit fails.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing maximum cores

This configuration works for hypervisor clusters, container farms or render nodes where core density matters more than local storage capacity. Buyers who need more than 8 GB of memory or more than two drive bays populated should look elsewhere because the installed RAM is only 8 GB and only two 146 GB SAS drives are fitted.

16 DIMM slots with 8 GB DDR4 installed

The board provides 16 DDR4 slots, eight per processor, supporting registered ECC modules up to 64 GB each. Only 8 GB is populated from the factory, so any workload beyond light testing will require additional memory before deployment.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum DDR4 memory capacity this ProLiant DL160 Gen9 can hold?

The server supports up to 1TB of DDR4 memory across 16 DIMM slots, with 8 slots per processor.

How much heat and noise should I expect from the dual 550W power supplies under full load?

Dual redundant hot-swap 550W supplies share the load; fan speed ramps with inlet temperature, so sustained full load increases both airflow noise and exhaust heat.

Which SAS drives and trays are required to populate the remaining six SFF bays?

The chassis uses 2.5-inch SAS drives with HP SFF trays; any 6Gbps or 12Gbps SAS HDD or SSD that fits the tray will connect to the H240 controller.
