Balanced 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built for general-purpose workloads and cloud deployments. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processors running at 1.6GHz and 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 16 DIMM slots. The platform supports up to 36 total cores with compatible v3 or v4 Xeon processors for expanded compute capacity.

Sustained load behaviour

Redundant hot-swap 550W power supplies maintain uptime during continuous operation. The B140i software RAID controller handles SATA drives at RAID 0, 1 or 5 for data redundancy under persistent write workloads. Embedded dual-port 1Gb Ethernet (361) provides steady network throughput without adding discrete adapters. Memory speed scales to 2400MT/s depending on the installed processor capability.

Build and connectivity

Eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays accept SAS or SATA drives with two trays and screws included for immediate installation. An optional universal media bay or two additional SFF bays can expand internal storage density. The Matrox G200 graphics core with 16MB video memory drives basic console output for remote management. No operating system is included, allowing direct hypervisor or OS deployment.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 550W supply draw when the dual Xeon E5-2603 v3 CPUs run at full load all day?

The server includes a 550W hot-swap power supply; actual draw depends on workload but the unit is rated to deliver up to 550W continuously.

Which drives must I supply myself because the chassis ships empty?

The 8-bay SFF chassis includes two drive trays with screws but no drives; you must provide 2.5-inch SATA drives for the B140i controller.

Will my existing SAS drives work with the onboard B140i controller?

No, the B140i supports SATA only; SAS drives require a separate SAS-capable controller.
