1U rack server for scale-out workloads

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 fits a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor at 1.6 GHz with 16 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 16 DIMM slots. Redundant hot-swap power supplies and eight 2.5-inch drive bays support SATA RAID 0, 1 or 5 through the B140i controller. Matrox G200 graphics provide basic video output.

Suits single-socket deployments needing dense

This chassis targets environments that run one processor and rely on SATA drives for capacity or boot volumes. The B140i controller does not support SAS disks, so workloads requiring hardware RAID or SAS connectivity should look elsewhere. Dual-socket configurations are possible but require a second processor kit not included here.

Eight SFF bays with SATA-only RAID

The eight small-form-factor bays accept 2.5-inch SATA drives managed by the B140i software RAID engine limited to RAID 0, 1 and 5. No SAS or hardware RAID capability is present, making this the deciding specification for storage planning.

Questions about this item

Which drives must I supply to use the eight 2.5-inch bays and the B140i controller?

The chassis holds eight 2.5-inch SFF bays and the B140i controller supports SATA only, so you need SATA SSDs or HDDs; SAS drives are not supported by this controller.

Can I add a second Xeon E5-2603v3 processor later without changing the memory configuration?

The board accepts two processors and provides eight DDR4 DIMM slots per CPU; adding the second processor simply unlocks the second bank of eight slots while the existing 16 GB remains in the first bank.

How can I verify the Matrox G200 video and dual 1 GbE ports are active after assembly?

Attach a monitor to the VGA port and confirm the Matrox G200 16 MB adapter appears in BIOS or OS device manager, then connect network cables and check both 361 Ethernet links show 1 Gb/s.
