Product Identity

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2623 v3 quad-core processor running at 3 GHz. It ships with 4 GB of DDR4 memory and two 146 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a Smart HBA H240 controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 5. Redundant hot-swap power supplies and eight SFF drive bays provide a compact foundation for dense deployments.

Fit and Limits

This unit suits environments that need a ready-to-run, space-efficient server for light workloads such as file serving, web hosting or virtualisation pilots. The single installed processor leaves one socket open for a second CPU, but the 4 GB memory ceiling and only two small-capacity drives will not satisfy databases, heavy virtualisation or storage-heavy applications that demand more RAM or larger, faster drive arrays.

Deciding Specification

The installed memory is capped at 4 GB and the specification lists 4 GB as the maximum capacity, so the system cannot accept additional modules. If the target workload requires more memory, a different server platform must be chosen.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the H240 controller sees both 146 GB SAS drives after installation?

During POST the H240 BIOS lists each detected drive; press the indicated key to enter the controller utility and verify both 146 GB SAS volumes appear with RAID 0/1/5 options.

What ships in the box and what must I source separately?

The 1U chassis includes one E5-2623 v3 CPU, 4 GB DDR4, two 146 GB 15K 2.5" SAS drives with trays, the Smart HBA H240 controller and a 550 W hot-swap power supply; operating system, additional CPUs, memory modules and extra drive trays are not included.

Which memory capacity should I choose for the 16 DDR4 slots?

The board accepts 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB or 64 GB DDR4 ECC Registered modules up to 2400 MT/s; populate in sets of eight per processor to reach the 1 TB maximum.
