HPE ProLiant DL160 G5 1U rack server

The HPE ProLiant DL160 G5 is a 1U rack server built for general-purpose and high-performance computing tasks. It ships with one Intel Xeon E5430 quad-core processor running at 2.66 GHz and 12 MB cache. The chassis supports a second processor for future expansion. The Intel 5400 chipset manages system I/O and memory traffic.

2 GB DDR2 SDRAM and SAS controller with RAID

The server includes 2 GB of DDR2 SDRAM across eight total memory slots, allowing upgrades up to 32 GB. An integrated Ultra ATA and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) controller provides storage connectivity with hardware RAID support for levels 0, 1, 5, and 10. A combo optical drive is fitted as standard. No hard drives are installed in the base configuration.

Check DDR2 memory and SAS drive compatibility

Verify that any additional memory modules are DDR2 SDRAM compatible with the eight available slots. Confirm that storage drives use the SAS or Ultra ATA interfaces supported by the onboard controller. Ensure the 1U rack form factor fits the intended cabinet and that power and cooling provisions meet the dual-processor capable design.

Questions about this item

Will the DDR2 memory modules need replacing as capacities grow?

The board has eight DDR2 slots and supports up to 32 GB total, so larger DDR2 modules can be added later.

What limits the installed Xeon E5430 during sustained loads?

The single quad-core 2.66 GHz processor with 12 MB cache sets the compute ceiling under continuous work.

How loud and hot does the 1U chassis get running all day?

The compact 1U rack design uses high-speed fans to cool the E5430 and chipset, so expect noticeable airflow noise and warm exhaust.
