HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U rack server

This 1U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processors at 1.6 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. It includes the HP Smart HBA H240 controller supporting 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA with RAID 0, 1 and 5. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays are ready for SFF drives, and dual 550 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy. The Matrox G200 GPU offers 16 MB video memory for basic display output.

Suited for dense compute; not for GPU workloads

The dual six-core CPUs and 16 DIMM slots suit virtualization hosts, web tiers and memory-heavy applications that benefit from many threads in a shallow rack profile. Buyers who need hardware-accelerated graphics, GPU compute or more than eight drive bays in 1U should look at a different platform. The 8 GB installed is a starting point; the board accepts up to 1 TB across the 16 slots. Embedded 1 Gb Ethernet handles standard network traffic.

16 DIMM slots and 1 TB DDR4 max

Sixteen DDR4 ECC registered slots, eight per processor, support modules of 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64 GB up to 2400 MT/s depending on the CPU. The populated configuration ships with 8 GB total. This ceiling determines whether the chassis can grow into a large-memory database or analytics node. Populate all slots with 64 GB modules to reach the 1 TB maximum.

Questions about this item

Which DDR4 memory modules and processor combinations must I already have to reach the 2400MT/s speed listed for this server?

The 16 DIMM slots accept 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB or 64GB DDR4 ECC Registered modules; actual speed depends on the installed Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors.

Will the H240 controller recognise my existing 6Gb SATA drives when installed in the 2.5-inch bays?

Yes, the Smart HBA H240 supports 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA, so legacy SATA drives work in the eight SFF bays with RAID 0, 1 or 5.

How do I confirm the Matrox G200 video output is active after the server posts?

Connect a monitor to the VGA port; the 16MB Matrox G200 firmware screen appears during POST, confirming the graphics subsystem is initialised.
