ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2603v3 six-core processor running at 1.6GHz. It ships with 32GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across 16 DIMM slots and includes two 1TB 7.2K 2.5-inch SATA enterprise drives. The onboard B140i controller provides software RAID 0, 1 and 5 for SATA devices only, powered by a 550W hot-swap supply.

Suited for SATA storage workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need a compact 1U rack server with redundant power and SATA RAID for general-purpose workloads or cloud staging. It is not for environments that require hardware RAID acceleration, SAS drive support on the onboard controller, or GPU compute capacity beyond the basic Matrox G200 graphics. Teams needing more than 32GB of memory or dual-processor performance from day one should look at a different starting point.

Single Xeon E5-2603v3 processor installed

The server arrives with one six-core Xeon E5-2603v3 CPU and supports a second processor to reach up to 36 total cores across the two sockets. Memory can scale to 1TB when both CPU sockets are populated with compatible DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s. The eight SFF drive bays accept 2.5-inch SATA drives, and the B140i controller manages RAID 0, 1 and 5 across those bays.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 550W power supply run when the server operates continuously?

The unit has redundant hot-swap 550W supplies; noise and thermal output depend on workload and ambient conditions.

Which components must I already have to make this 1U rack server operational?

You need rack rails or a cabinet, an operating system, and any additional DDR4 ECC Registered modules if expanding beyond the installed 32GB.

Will the B140i controller and 2.5-inch SATA drives work with older SAS or SATA drives I keep from previous systems?

The B140i supports SATA RAID 0, 1, 5 only; older SAS drives are not compatible, but legacy SATA drives can be used in the 8 SFF bays.
