ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U Server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server designed for general-purpose workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2603v3 six-core processor at 1.6GHz and 8GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Two 500GB 2.5-inch SATA hard drives are installed in an eight-bay SFF chassis. A 550W redundant hot-swap power supply is included.

Suits single-CPU starts.

This configuration suits buyers who need a compact 1U platform with room to add a second processor and up to 16 DIMM slots. The B140i software RAID controller supports SATA drives at RAID 0, 1, or 5. Builders who require hardware RAID for SAS drives, a dedicated GPU, or a pre-installed operating system should look at other configurations.

B140i software RAID limits drive choice to SATA

The installed B140i controller provides RAID 0, 1, and 5 for SATA devices only. SAS drives and hardware RAID features are not supported on this controller. If the deployment requires SAS connectivity or battery-backed cache, a compatible hardware RAID card must be sourced separately.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the 1U chassis provide?

The chassis has 8 SFF bays for 2.5-inch drives; two are filled with the included 500 GB SATA drives and the remaining six are open for expansion.

What is the correct order for installing the second processor and its memory?

Install the second Xeon processor first, then populate its eight dedicated DIMM slots with registered ECC DDR4 modules; the system will not recognise memory in those slots until the processor is seated.

When should the 550 W hot-swap power supply be replaced?

Replace the 550 W unit if the iLO health LED shows a power-supply fault, if the server logs report a fan or voltage anomaly, or if a second supply is added for redundancy and one module fails.
