HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server system built for dense compute environments. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2623 v3 processors and 128GB of DDR4 memory installed across the 16 available DIMM slots. The unit includes an HP Smart HBA H240 storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 5 for internal drives.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This server suits buyers needing a balanced 1U platform with dual processors and high memory capacity for virtualisation or database workloads. It is not for buyers who need GPU acceleration beyond the integrated Matrox G200 graphics core. It is not for deployments requiring pre-installed solid-state drives or an operating system license.

The specification that decides fit

The server maxes out at 128GB of DDR4 memory with the current configuration, matching the installed capacity across all 16 slots. The H240 controller provides 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA connectivity for the eight 2.5-inch drive bays. Redundant hot-swap 550W power supplies are included for continuous operation.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 550W power supply produce when the server runs all day?

The dual Xeon E5-2623v3 processors and 128GB DDR4 draw power through the 550W supply, so sustained load will generate noticeable heat inside the 1U chassis.

Which drives must I supply myself to use the eight 2.5-inch bays?

The unit ships with eight SFF trays and screws but no drives; you provide 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives for the H240 controller.

Will the H240 controller work with my existing 6Gb SATA drives?

Yes, the Smart HBA H240 supports 6Gb SATA alongside 12Gb SAS, so older SATA drives connect directly to the eight SFF bays.
