Product identity

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server equipped with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4GHz. It ships with 16GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 16 DIMM slots and two 146GB 15K SAS drives managed by an HP Smart HBA H240 controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 5. Redundant hot-swap 550W power supplies are included.

Who it suits

This server fits buyers who need a compact, balanced compute platform for general-purpose workloads, virtualization or cloud deployments within a single rack unit. The eight SFF drive bays and dual-processor capability allow future expansion of storage and cores. Buyers who need more internal drive bays, integrated graphics performance or an operating system pre-installed should look at alternative configurations.

Deciding specification

The installed memory is capped at 16GB in this configuration despite the platform supporting up to 1TB across 16 slots, so the single specification that decides fit is whether 16GB of DDR4 meets the immediate workload requirement or if additional memory modules must be sourced separately.

Questions about this item

What DDR4 ECC registered DIMM speeds does the ProLiant DL160 Gen9 support with the installed Xeon E5-2630 v3?

The server supports DDR4 up to 2400 MT/s ECC registered, with actual speed dependent on the processor capability.

Can the H240 controller manage the two 146 GB 15K SAS drives alongside SATA SSDs I might add later?

Yes, the Smart HBA H240 handles 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA, supporting RAID 0/1/5 across mixed drives.

How can I confirm the single 550 W power supply is operating correctly after installation?

Check the front-panel health LED and iLO status for a steady green power indication with no fault alerts.
