Server system with dual Xeon processors

This HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each with 10 cores running at 2.3 GHz. It includes 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a Smart HBA H240 controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 5. Two 600 GB 15K SAS drives are installed in the front bays.

Suited for compute-heavy workloads needing density

The dual 10-core CPUs give 40 threads for virtualisation, database or high-performance computing tasks in a single rack unit. Redundant hot-swap power supplies support uptime requirements. Buyers who need more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or more than 16 GB of memory out of the box should look at a larger chassis or a configuration with additional DIMMs.

Storage controller decides drive options

The Smart HBA H240 provides 12 Gb/s SAS and 6 Gb/s SATA connectivity with hardware RAID 0, 1 and 5. It governs which drives can be added and how they are protected, so confirming the controller matches the intended drive type and RAID level is the critical step before purchase.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 550 W redundant power supply run when the dual 10-core Xeon E5-2650 v3 CPUs are fully loaded all day?

The 550 W redundant hot-swap power supplies are sized for the dual 10-core Xeon E5-2650 v3 configuration; fan speed ramps with CPU and drive load, so sustained full utilisation will increase both airflow noise and exhaust temperature inside a 1U rack.

Which rack rails, cabling and operating-system licence do I need to have ready before this 1U server arrives?

You will need a standard 1U rack rail kit, SAS cables for the eight 2.5-inch drive bays, and a separate OS licence because none is included with the server.

Can the H240 controller and the eight 2.5-inch SAS bays still use the 15 K 600 GB drives I already own from an older array?

Yes — the Smart HBA H240 supports 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA, so existing 6 Gbps 2.5-inch SAS drives such as 15 K 600 GB units will work in the eight SFF bays.
