1U rack server with dual Xeon

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack system built for balanced compute and storage density. It ships with two Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processors at 2.4 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 DIMM slots. Eight 146 GB 15K SAS drives and an H240 Smart HBA provide internal storage and RAID 0, 1 or 5. Redundant hot-swap 550 W power supplies support continuous operation. No operating system is included.

Suits virtualisation, not GPU-heavy tasks

This server suits environments that need up to 36 total cores and 1 TB of DDR4 memory in a single rack unit. The Matrox G200 graphics controller is limited to basic display output and cannot accelerate compute workloads. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or additional PCIe slots for specialised cards should evaluate other platforms. The eight SFF bays are populated, leaving no room for more drives without a media bay or extra bay kit.

H240 controller with eight SAS drives

The installed H240 Smart HBA manages the eight 146 GB 15K SAS drives and supports RAID 0, 1 and 5 across 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA links. This controller choice determines the RAID levels and drive protocols available without adding a separate RAID card. If a different RAID level or a hardware RAID cache is required, the H240 would need to be replaced.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5-inch SAS bays in this 1U chassis accept the 15K rpm 146 GB drives I already own?

Yes, the eight small-form-factor bays are designed for 2.5-inch SAS drives and the server ships with eight 146 GB 15K rpm 6 Gbps SAS drives installed.

How can I verify the H240 controller is presenting all eight 146 GB drives at the expected 6 Gbps link speed after installation?

Enter the H240 BIOS utility or use the Smart Storage Administrator; it will list each physical drive with its negotiated link speed and the RAID 0/1/5 volumes you have configured.

Does the box include rail kits or cable-management arms, or must I order them separately?

The shipment contains the 1U server with dual 550 W hot-swap power supplies, two Xeon E5-2630v3 processors, 16 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, eight 146 GB SAS drives in trays, and the H240 controller; rails and cable-management arms are not included.
