Balanced 1U rack server for cloud

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 fits a single Intel Xeon E5-2623 v3 quad-core processor running at 3 GHz with 8 GB of DDR4 ECC memory installed across 16 DIMM slots. Dual hot-swap 550 W power supplies provide redundancy in a 1U chassis that holds eight 2.5-inch drive bays. The Smart HBA H240 controller manages SAS and SATA drives with RAID 0, 1 and 5 support for general-purpose deployments.

Upgrade from single-socket or non-redundant systems

Moving from a tower or single-processor rack unit without redundant power adds a second processor socket supporting up to 36 total cores across the E5-2600 v3 and v4 families and expands memory capacity to 1 TB. The jump is worthwhile when workloads need hot-swap drive bays, dual power supplies and the ability to scale beyond the installed 8 GB and two 1 TB 7.2 K SAS drives.

Steady throughput with redundant power and SAS

Under sustained load the dual 550 W supplies share the load so one can fail without interruption, while the H240 controller maintains RAID protection across the 6 Gbps SAS drives. DDR4 memory runs up to 2400 MT/s depending on the processor, and the Matrox G200 graphics handles basic console output without consuming compute resources. The 1U form factor keeps airflow predictable in dense racks.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the 1U chassis provide for the installed SAS drives?

The chassis provides 8 SFF bays; two are occupied by the 1 TB 7.2K SAS drives and the remaining six are available for expansion.

What is the correct order for seating the Smart HBA H240 controller and connecting the SAS cables before powering on?

Install the H240 into the dedicated internal slot, attach the mini-SAS cables to the backplane, then apply power; skipping the cable step leaves the drives invisible to the RAID utility.

When the 550 W hot-swap power supply reaches end of life, what form-factor replacement is required?

A matching 550 W hot-swap unit of the same HP ProLiant Gen9 form factor is needed to maintain redundant power operation.
