HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U Server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 4 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory, two 600 GB 15K 6 Gbps 2.5-inch SAS drives, and an HP Smart HBA H240 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, and 5. A 550 W redundant hot-swap power supply is included.

Suits single-socket workloads needing fast SAS

This server suits buyers who want a compact 1U platform with high-speed 15K SAS drives and room to add a second Xeon E5 v3 processor later. The chassis provides eight SFF drive bays and sixteen DDR4 DIMM slots. Buyers who need a second processor installed from the start, a GPU for accelerated computing, or more than 4 GB of memory out of the box should look at other platforms.

Single Xeon E5-2630 v3 with 4 GB DDR4

The decisive specification is the single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core CPU paired with only 4 GB of installed DDR4 memory. The system supports up to 1 TB total memory across sixteen slots and a second processor, but the shipping configuration delivers just one CPU and a minimal memory footprint. Verify that this starting point matches the workload before ordering.

Questions about this item

How is the Smart HBA H240 controller installed and which cable routing mistake should be avoided?

Mount the H240 in the dedicated internal slot and connect the two 600 GB SAS drives to the controller's mini-SAS ports; do not plug the drives into the system board SATA headers or the RAID volume will not initialise.

What maintenance will the two 600 GB 15K SAS drives require over time?

Monitor SMART attributes for reallocated sectors and run periodic surface scans; when a drive reports predictive failure, replace it with another 2.5-inch 6Gbps SAS drive and let the H240 rebuild the RAID 1 mirror.

Which limit appears first when the single E5-2630 v3 runs at full load continuously?

The 550 W power supply sets the ceiling; sustained turbo on all eight cores plus two 15K drives and the H240 controller will hit the supply rating before thermal throttling engages.
