About This Product
Overview
The HPE ProLiant DL160 Gen9 is a 1U rack server barebone platform built for users who want a configurable foundation for a custom server deployment. With support for dual Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 and v4 processors, LGA2011-3 CPU sockets, and DDR4 ECC Registered memory, it provides the core platform needed to assemble a system around your specific workload requirements. Its compact rackmount design makes it suitable for environments where space efficiency matters, while the integrated iLO4 management feature adds convenient remote administration capabilities for ongoing oversight and maintenance. Because this unit is supplied as a barebone server with no CPU, no RAM, and no drives, it is intended for buyers who already have compatible components or want to source them separately to match their build plan.
Performance & Scalability
Designed around the Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3/v4 processor family, the DL160 Gen9 offers a flexible performance platform that can be tailored to different server roles depending on the installed CPUs, memory configuration, and storage layout. DDR4 ECC Registered memory support helps make it a practical choice for business environments that require reliable operation and expandable capacity. PCIe 3.0 expansion slots provide room for additional hardware as needs evolve, allowing the system to be adapted for networking, storage, or other expansion requirements. This makes the server a strong fit for organizations looking for a scalable rack server base that can be configured for general-purpose computing, virtualization support, or application hosting within the limits of the installed components.
Storage Flexibility
The HPE ProLiant DL160 Gen9 supports SAS, SATA, and SSD drives, giving you flexibility when planning storage for the system. This broad compatibility allows the platform to be matched with different performance and capacity goals, whether the priority is fast response times, balanced everyday storage, or higher-capacity drive options. Its flexible drive bay configuration adds another layer of adaptability, making it easier to align the chassis with the storage layout required for your deployment. Since the server is offered without drives installed, it gives resellers, IT teams, and system builders the freedom to choose storage that fits the intended use case and existing infrastructure.
Why Choose This Product?
This barebone rack server is a practical option for buyers who need a proven HPE platform and prefer to build out the system with selected components. The combination of dual-processor support, DDR4 ECC Registered memory compatibility, PCIe 3.0 expansion, and integrated iLO4 management creates a versatile base for many server configurations. Its 1U form factor helps conserve rack space, while the flexible drive support makes it easier to design a storage setup around specific performance or capacity needs. For IT hardware buyers seeking a configurable server chassis from HPE, the DL160 Gen9 offers a balanced mix of manageability, expandability, and deployment flexibility.

Why Buy a Refurbished Products?
Refurbished enterprise servers offer enterprise-grade performance at a fraction of the new price.
Up to 70% Cost Savings
Refurbished R650xs units deliver identical hardware capability to new, at significantly lower upfront cost — freeing budget for CPUs, RAM, and storage.
Fully Tested & Verified
Every unit undergoes comprehensive hardware diagnostics before dispatch. POST tests, burn-in, memory checks, and power supply verification are standard.
Immediate Availability
Unlike new enterprise servers with lead times of weeks or months, refurbished stock is ready to ship within 24 hours of ordering.
Same Performance
The hardware inside the R650xs performs identically whether purchased new or refurbished. The 3rd Gen Xeon platform, PCIe Gen4, and iDRAC9 are unchanged.
