Balanced 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack 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 16 GB of DDR4 memory. Two 500 GB 7.2K SATA drives are installed in the eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis. The B140i controller provides software RAID levels 0, 1 and 5 for SATA drives. A 550 W redundant hot-swap power supply is included.

Suited for SATA RAID deployments

This server fits environments that need a compact 1U form factor with internal SATA storage and software RAID. Buyers who require hardware RAID acceleration or SAS drive support from the installed controller should look elsewhere. The single-processor configuration limits core count to six, so heavily threaded applications will need the second CPU socket populated. Organisations needing pre-installed operating systems must supply their own licences and media.

B140i software RAID for SATA only

The B140i controller handles SATA RAID only, so buyers who need hardware RAID acceleration should look elsewhere. It supports RAID 0, 1 and 5 across the installed 500 GB drives or additional SATA disks. No other storage controller is included, making this specification the deciding factor for storage architecture compatibility.

Questions about this item

What rack height and power supply does the 1U ProLiant DL160 Gen9 need to fit and run in my cabinet?

The server is a 1U rack unit and ships with a 550W power supply; redundant hot-swap power is supported so a second supply can be added for failover.

Can I keep my existing 2.5-inch SATA drives and use the B140i controller for RAID 0, 1 or 5?

Yes — the B140i software RAID controller supports SATA only and offers RAID 0, 1 and 5 across the eight 2.5-inch drive bays.

How do I verify the E5-2603 v3 is recognised and the 16GB DDR4 is running at the correct speed after installation?

Check the system BIOS or iLO interface: it will show the single six-core 1.6GHz processor and report the installed DDR4 ECC registered memory operating up to 2400MT/s.
