1U rack server with eight SFF bays

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 fits a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays connect through a Smart HBA H240 controller that supports RAID 0, 1 and 5. Redundant hot-swap 550 W power supplies keep the platform running during module replacement.

Upgrade from single-socket or smaller-bay systems

Moving from a tower or 1U chassis with four bays adds drive density and a second processor socket for up to 36 total cores across two CPUs. The jump is worth it when workloads need more concurrent threads or local storage than a single-socket, four-bay box can deliver without expanding to a 2U form factor.

Sustained load with redundant power and ECC memory

Dual 550 W supplies share the load so neither unit runs at its limit during continuous operation. DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs correct single-bit errors that would otherwise accumulate over long compute runs. The Matrox G200 graphics core with 16 MB video memory handles console output without adding thermal load to the CPU complex.

Questions about this item

What rack height does this 1U server require?

The server occupies 1U of rack space in a standard rack cabinet.

How is the H240 controller configured for RAID, and what step is often missed?

Use the H240’s BIOS utility to create RAID 0, 1 or 5 volumes before installing the operating system; skipping this leaves drives in JBOD mode.

Which memory modules can be added later to the 16 DIMM slots?

DDR4 ECC Registered DIMMs of 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB or 64GB running up to 2400MT/s, with actual speed set by the installed Xeon E5-2603 v3 processor.
