1U rack server with dual 600 GB SAS drives

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 occupies a single rack unit and ships with one Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across the 16 DIMM slots and two 2.5-inch 15 K RPM SAS drives on an H240 controller. The 550 W hot-swap power supply provides redundancy for continuous operation.

SAS interface limited to 6 Gbps on installed drives

The H240 controller supports 12 Gbps SAS and 6 Gbps SATA, but the supplied 600 GB drives operate at 6 Gbps. RAID levels 0, 1 and 5 are available across the eight SFF bays. Memory speed reaches 2400 MT/s only when a compatible second processor is added; with the single installed CPU the effective rate is lower.

Maximum memory capped at 64 GB with one processor

The chassis offers 16 DIMM slots and a 1 TB ceiling, yet the 64 GB limit applies while only one processor is populated. Buyers who need more than 64 GB of RAM must add a second Xeon E5 v3 CPU to unlock the remaining eight slots and the full capacity.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2603 v3 or add a second processor?

The server ships with one six-core 1.6 GHz Xeon and supports up to two processors for a maximum of 36 total cores.

What does the 64 GB DDR4 figure mean for actual workloads?

All 16 DIMM slots are populated at 64 GB, so the installed memory already reaches the per-processor limit of 64 GB; adding a second CPU would allow expansion to 1 TB.

How does the Smart HBA H240 controller limit drive performance?

The H240 handles 12 Gbps SAS and 6 Gbps SATA with RAID 0, 1 and 5, so the two 600 GB 15 K SAS drives run at their native 6 Gbps link speed.
