1U Dual Xeon E5-2630 v3 Server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server fitted with two eight-core Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 16 DIMM slots and an HP Smart HBA H240 controller providing 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA connectivity. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays are included without drives, and a 550 W power supply is fitted.

Suits Virtualisation And General Compute

This configuration suits environments that need balanced compute and memory capacity in a single rack unit. The dual processors deliver 32 threads for virtualised workloads or multi-threaded applications, while the maximum memory ceiling of 128 GB is already populated. Buyers who require more than 128 GB of RAM or more than eight drive bays should look elsewhere.

128 GB DDR4 Maximum Memory Ceiling

The platform supports a maximum of 128 GB of DDR4 ECC Registered memory, and this unit already reaches that limit. The 16 slots are fully occupied with modules running up to 2400 MT/s dependent on the processor capability. Any future expansion would require replacing the installed memory rather than adding to it.

Questions about this item

What rack height and drive-bay layout does the DL160 Gen9 require?

The server is a 1U rack unit with eight 2.5-inch small-form-factor drive bays and includes the drive trays and screws.

How are the two Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors and 128 GB of DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs are pre-installed; the 128 GB fills all 16 DIMM slots (eight per processor), so memory must be added in matched pairs per CPU to keep channels balanced.

Which components will need replacement first — the 550 W power supplies or the H240 RAID battery?

The redundant hot-swap 550 W power supplies and the Smart HBA H240 controller’s cache battery are the primary replaceable items; both can be swapped without shutting down the server.
