Balanced 1U rack server

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a compact 1U rack server built for general-purpose workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Two 1 TB 7.2 K 2.5-inch SATA drives and a B140i software RAID controller provide baseline storage redundancy. Redundant hot-swap 550 W power supplies support continuous operation.

Suits memory-bound tasks, not heavy compute

This configuration suits buyers who need a dense 1U chassis filled to its 128 GB memory ceiling with a single processor installed. The sixteen DIMM slots are fully populated, so no further memory can be added without removing modules. Organisations requiring more than six cores per CPU, a second processor, or hardware RAID with SAS support should evaluate other platforms.

Memory capacity fixed at 128 GB

The installed 128 GB of DDR4 matches the maximum addressable capacity with one E5-2603 v3 processor. All sixteen slots are occupied, so expanding memory requires a second CPU and replacement of existing modules. This hard limit decides whether the server fits workloads that must grow beyond 128 GB.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with drive trays for the eight 2.5-inch bays or only for the two installed 1 TB drives?

Trays are included with the two installed 1 TB 7.2K 6 Gbps 2.5-inch SATA drives; the remaining six bays do not come with trays and must be purchased separately if you add more drives.

Should I select the single E5-2603 v3 six-core 1.6 GHz configuration or add a second processor for my workload?

The chassis supports up to two processors and 36 total cores; the single six-core 1.6 GHz CPU suits light tasks, while a second compatible Xeon doubles core count for heavier multi-threaded loads.

What does the 128 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory mean for actual performance once the server is running?

All 16 DIMM slots are filled to the 128 GB maximum for a single processor; memory runs at up to 2400 MT/s limited by the E5-2603 v3 capability, giving full ECC error correction for stability.
