Balanced 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built for balanced workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2623v3 quad-core processor at 3 GHz and 4 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. The chassis includes eight 146 GB 15K SAS drives and a Smart HBA H240 controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 5. Redundant hot-swap power supplies are fitted.

Eight-bay SFF storage density

This configuration suits buyers who need dense 2.5-inch SAS storage in a single rack unit with hardware RAID. The eight drive bays are fully populated with 146 GB 15K spindles, so no immediate expansion is required. Organisations that require larger capacity per drive, solid-state media, or a second processor for heavier compute should evaluate other options.

Smart HBA H240 RAID controller

The Smart HBA H240 provides 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA connectivity with RAID 0, 1 and 5 support. It manages the eight installed drives and any additional SFF bays. Buyers needing RAID 6, 10 or advanced cache features must add a different controller.

Questions about this item

How do I install the H240 RAID controller and what step is often missed?

The H240 controller installs in the dedicated internal slot; the step often missed is enabling the controller in UEFI and configuring the logical drive before the OS installer starts.

What maintenance will the eight 146 GB 15K SAS drives need later?

The 15K SAS drives are mechanical; plan to monitor SMART health and replace any drive that shows reallocated sectors or excessive latency.

What limit appears first under sustained load with the single 550 W supply?

The single 550 W power supply caps total system draw; sustained CPU plus eight 15K drives can hit that ceiling before thermal limits do.
