Compact rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rackmount server built for general-purpose workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz and 4 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Two 1.8 TB 7.2K SAS drives and an H240 Smart HBA provide RAID 0, 1, and 5 support. A redundant 550 W hot-swap power supply is included.

Suited for starter deployments

This configuration fits small business file, print, or web serving where modest compute and a pair of SAS drives are sufficient. The 16 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 1 TB when a second processor is added. It is not for buyers who need large installed memory immediately, workloads that require GPU acceleration, or sites that demand high-speed solid-state storage performance.

Memory ceiling decides fit

The system board offers 16 DDR4 slots supporting modules up to 64 GB each, but the single E5-2603 v3 limits usable capacity to 4 GB per slot at 2400 MT/s. If the application cannot run within 4 GB today, plan to add a second processor and more DIMMs before deployment.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the H240 controller sees both 1.8 TB SAS drives after setup?

During POST the H240 BIOS lists each 1.8 TB SAS drive and shows the RAID 0/1/5 array status; iLO also reports drive health and firmware version.

What ships with the server and what must I add separately?

Includes one E5-2603 v3 CPU, 4 GB DDR4, two 1.8 TB 7.2K SAS drives in trays, H240 controller, 550 W power supply, Matrox G200 GPU, and 8 SFF bays; second CPU, extra DDR4 DIMMs, OS, and optional media bay or extra drives are not included.

Which memory capacity should I choose for this single-CPU configuration?

With one processor installed you can populate up to 8 DIMM slots; supported DDR4 ECC Registered modules are 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB, or 64 GB each, running up to 2400 MT/s.
