Balanced 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a compact rack server built for general-purpose workloads in space-constrained environments. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2603v3 six-core processor running at 1.6GHz and 8GB of DDR4 ECC memory. The chassis supports a second processor for expanded compute capacity. Redundant hot-swap power supplies are included for increased uptime.

Memory headroom and storage fit

Installed memory sits at 8GB across the 16 available DIMM slots, leaving substantial room to scale toward the 1TB maximum supported by the platform. The two 600GB 15K SAS drives deliver fast sequential access for operating systems and active datasets. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays provide room for additional SAS or SATA devices as requirements grow.

H240 controller and SAS interface limits

The Smart HBA H240 handles RAID 0, 1 and 5 across 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA connections. This controller caps array performance at the SAS link speed rather than the drive media limit. The integrated Matrox G200 graphics provide basic console output only, so the system targets headless or remote-management deployments.

Questions about this item

Will the 12Gb SAS H240 controller work with my existing 6Gb SAS drives?

The H240 controller supports 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA, so it will operate with your current 6Gb SAS drives at their native speed.

How can I confirm the single Xeon E5-2603v3 and 8GB DDR4 are recognised after installation?

Check the POST screen or iLO interface; both will show one six-core 1.6GHz processor and 8GB of registered ECC DDR4 memory.

Which drive trays and power cords are included, and do I need to buy rails separately?

The two 600GB 15K 2.5-inch SAS drives ship with trays; a 550W hot-swap power supply is installed. Rails are not included and must be purchased separately.
