HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U Rack Server E5-2603v3 1.6GHz 16GB DDR4 H240

ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rackmount server system built for density and balanced compute. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2603v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis includes eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays, an H240 Smart HBA controller supporting SAS and SATA RAID 0, 1, 5, and a redundant 550 W hot-swap power supply.

Suits entry workloads, not memory-intensive clusters

This server fits buyers who need a compact, redundant platform for virtualisation hosts, file serving or general-purpose cloud workloads at modest core counts. The installed memory is fixed at 16 GB and the single processor leaves one socket open for expansion. Buyers who require the full 1 TB memory ceiling, dual-processor performance from day one, or GPU compute capability should evaluate other platforms.

Memory ceiling fixed at 16 GB on this unit

The specification lists maximum memory capacity as 16 GB for this configuration, with 16 DIMM slots available across two processors. DDR4 modules up to 64 GB each are supported by the platform at speeds to 2400 MT/s, but this particular build does not allow memory growth beyond the installed 16 GB. Confirm the limit matches your workload before purchase.
