ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server built around a single Xeon E5-2603 v3 processor running at 1.6 GHz with six cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across its 16 DIMM slots. The Smart HBA H240 controller provides RAID 0, 1 and 5 support for up to eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays. Redundant hot-swap power supplies are included.

Check CPU memory limits and drive caddies

This unit reaches the maximum 128 GB capacity supported by the installed processor; adding a second Xeon would be required to reach the chassis limit of 1 TB. Verify that your workloads can operate within the six-core, 1.6 GHz envelope before ordering. The eight SFF bays accept 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives but no drives are included, so plan to supply your own media and any required mounting screws.

Sustained load on six-core Xeon and H240

Under continuous demand the single Xeon E5-2603 v3 delivers steady six-core throughput at its base 1.6 GHz without Turbo uplift. The 550 W redundant power supplies maintain output during prolonged RAID rebuilds or heavy I/O across the H240 controller. DDR4 ECC memory corrects single-bit errors in real time, preserving data integrity during extended compute or virtualization tasks.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and which items must be purchased separately?

The server includes a single Xeon E5-2603 v3 processor, 128 GB DDR4 ECC memory, the H240 RAID controller, eight 2.5-inch drive trays with screws, and a 550 W power supply. Drives and an operating system are not included.

Should I choose the current 128 GB configuration or plan for the 1 TB maximum?

The unit ships with 128 GB installed across 16 DIMM slots, reaching the per-processor limit of the fitted E5-2603 v3. To reach 1 TB you would need a second processor and higher-capacity DDR4 modules.

How does the 1.6 GHz six-core Xeon perform once the server is loaded with drives and memory?

The E5-2603 v3 provides six cores at 1.6 GHz with no Turbo Boost, so throughput scales linearly with thread count. The H240 controller supports RAID 0, 1 and 5 for SAS or SATA drives, and the 550 W supply powers the full 1U chassis.
