1U dual-socket rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 16 DIMM slots and includes two 1 TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a Smart HBA H240 controller supporting RAID 0, 1 and 5. Redundant hot-swap 550 W power supplies are fitted as standard.

Upgrade path from single-socket

Moving to this platform adds a second socket and raises the core count to 16 physical cores with 32 threads via hyper-threading. The jump is worthwhile when workloads need more simultaneous threads than a single E5 v3 processor can deliver, or when the 16 DIMM slots allow memory growth beyond the 16 GB installed. Buyers who need more than 36 total cores or persistent memory options will need a different chassis.

Build integration and expansion

The server occupies one rack unit and provides eight 2.5-inch SFF drive bays, leaving six bays free for additional SAS or SATA drives. The H240 controller handles both 12 Gb SAS and 6 Gb SATA devices without a separate RAID card. Memory can scale to 1 TB using DDR4 modules up to 2400 MT/s, limited by the installed processors. No operating system is included, so the installer must supply one.

Questions about this item

What rack dimensions does the 1U DL160 Gen9 chassis require?

The server is a 1U rack-mount unit designed for standard 1U rack spacing; rack rails are not included with this unit.

How do I install the two Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors and 16 GB DDR4 memory, and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs are pre-installed; the 16 GB DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs must be populated in matched sets across the 16 slots (eight per processor) to enable full-channel bandwidth.

Which components will need replacement over the life of the DL160 Gen9, and what are their specs?

The two 1 TB 7.2K 2.5-inch SAS drives and the dual 550 W hot-swap power supplies are the primary field-replaceable units; DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs up to 64 GB per slot are supported for future memory upgrades.
