HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U Rack Server E5-2650 v3 10C 2.3GHz 64GB DDR4 H240

HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U Rack Server

This 1U rack server is built for environments that need dense compute in a single rack unit. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processor at 2.3GHz and 64GB of DDR4 memory. The platform supports a second processor for up to 20 total cores and 40 threads. It targets workloads such as virtualization, cloud infrastructure, and general-purpose applications.

Smart HBA H240 RAID Controller Limits

Storage connects through the HP Smart HBA H240 controller, which provides 12Gb SAS and 6Gb SATA connectivity with RAID 0, 1, and 5 support. The chassis includes eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays with trays and screws, but no drives are installed. The controller does not support RAID 6 or RAID 10, so arrays requiring dual-parity or striped mirrors need a different controller. Maximum raw capacity is bound by the eight-bay limit and the drive sizes you choose.

Single Processor Installed — Second Socket Empty

The system arrives with one E5-2650 v3 CPU installed in a two-socket Intel C610 platform. The second socket is vacant, allowing an upgrade to 20 cores and 40 threads total. Memory capacity is currently at the per-processor maximum of 64GB across eight populated DIMM slots; adding the second processor unlocks the remaining eight slots and raises the system maximum to 1TB. Buyers who need the full 36-core potential or 1TB memory ceiling must purchase the second processor separately.
