HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U Server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 4GB of DDR4 memory and eight 146GB 15K SAS drives managed by an H240 controller. This configuration suits small-scale virtualisation, file serving or test environments needing dense 2.5-inch storage.

Installation notes for the DL160 Gen9

The 1U chassis slides into a standard rack and uses redundant hot-swap power supplies for straightforward maintenance. Drive trays are included with the installed SAS drives, so populating the eight SFF bays requires no extra parts. The H240 controller supports RAID 0, 1 and 5; firmware updates should be applied before creating arrays to avoid early configuration issues.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify your rack provides 1U space and adequate airflow for a 550W power supply. The system uses DDR4 ECC registered modules across sixteen DIMM slots, so any memory upgrades must match that specification. An operating system is not included; plan for a separate licence or installation media. The Matrox G200 graphics output is intended for management only, not graphical workloads.
