Compact dual-socket rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rackmount system built for environments that need two processors in a single rack unit. It ships with dual Xeon E5-2650 v3 CPUs, each providing ten cores at 2.3 GHz, and 64 GB of DDR4 memory. Redundant hot-swap power supplies are included for continuous operation.

Workload fit and limits

This server suits virtualization hosts, database nodes or compute clusters that benefit from up to 40 threads across two sockets. The eight SFF drive bays and H240 controller support SAS and SATA drives with RAID 0, 1 or 5. Buyers who need more drive bays or a different RAID feature set should consider another platform.

Memory ceiling

The system arrives with 64 GB installed across 16 DIMM slots and the specification lists 64 GB as the maximum memory capacity. No further memory expansion is possible beyond the factory configuration.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 8-bay SFF chassis or add the universal media bay for extra drives?

The unit ships with the 8-bay 2.5-inch SFF chassis; the universal media bay is an optional extra that adds two more SFF bays if you need more than eight drives.

What does the 2.3 GHz clock on the dual 10-core Xeon E5-2650 v3 mean for actual throughput?

Two 10-core processors running at 2.3 GHz provide 20 physical cores and 40 threads with Hyper-Threading, giving strong multi-threaded performance for virtualisation and database workloads.

How fast can the Smart HBA H240 controller move data to the installed 146 GB 15K SAS drives?

The H240 supports 12 Gb/s SAS and 6 Gb/s SATA, but the fitted 146 GB 15K drives are 6 Gb/s SAS, so the practical ceiling is 6 Gb/s per drive.
