HPE ProLiant DL160 Gen9 1U rack server barebone, SKU SRV-HP-DL160-G9-BARE, a dual-socket base for custom Xeon E5-2600 v3 and v4 builds.
This is a refurbished HPE ProLiant DL160 Gen9, SKU SRV-HP-DL160-G9-BARE, supplied as a barebone with no CPU, no RAM and no drives fitted. The DL160 Gen9 is HPE's density-focused 1U two-socket server from the Gen9 generation. It is built on two LGA2011-3 sockets for the Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 and v4 families, with DDR4 ECC Registered memory, PCIe 3.0 expansion, SAS and SATA drive support and integrated iLO 4 remote management. Buyers in Qatar choose a barebone like this when they already hold compatible processors, memory and drives, or want to specify each part themselves for a web, application or virtualisation host. IT teams and system builders in Doha also use it as a spare chassis for sites already running DL160 Gen9 servers, keeping the same firmware, management and parts across the rack.
SRV-HP-DL160-G9-BAREForm factor 1U rackChassis and platform
The DL160 Gen9 belongs to HPE's ProLiant Gen9 generation, launched in 2014 on the Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 platform and later extended to E5-2600 v4. Memory speed depends on the processor fitted, so quote the processor generation when planning DIMMs.
What you need to add
The chassis arrives empty of processors, memory and drives, so the build list starts with those. Fit one processor to start, or two matched processors for full memory and expansion capacity. E5-2600 v4 processors need a current system ROM, so update firmware with a v3 processor fitted if the board is on an early ROM. Memory slots belonging to the second socket only work when the second processor is installed.
- One or two Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 or v4 processors, identical model and stepping when two are fitted
- DDR4 ECC Registered DIMMs, populated evenly across both processors and in matching sizes
- SAS or SATA drives, hard disk or SSD, in the size that matches the chassis bays (3.5 inch LFF or 2.5 inch SFF)
- Drive carriers for each populated bay
- A SAS-capable PCIe RAID controller if you plan to use SAS drives, as the embedded controller handles SATA only
- Rack rails and an operating system licence for the intended workload
Compatibility
Parts for this chassis must be Gen9 era components. DDR4 Registered memory is required, and older DDR3 modules from Gen8 servers will not fit. Gen9 servers use SmartDrive carriers, so Gen8 and earlier carriers are not interchangeable. Drives must match the bay size of the chassis variant. Memory runs at the lowest speed supported by the processor and DIMMs fitted, so mixing speeds gives no benefit.
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Processor | Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 or v4, LGA2011-3 |
| Memory | DDR4 ECC Registered DIMM |
| Drives | SAS or SATA, HDD or SSD |
| Drive carriers | HPE Gen9 SmartDrive carriers, matching bay size |
| Expansion cards | PCIe 3.0, low profile for a 1U chassis |
| Management | iLO 4 firmware |

Why buy refurbished
Enterprise hardware, tested in Doha, at a fraction of the price of new
Every unit we sell has already proven itself in a data centre. We test it again, grade it, and back it with a warranty before it leaves our stock.
Tested before it ships
POST, burn-in, memory and power-supply checks on every unit. Anything that fails is repaired or pulled from stock, not sold.
Same performance, lower cost
A Xeon runs the same workloads whether it is new or two years old. Spend the difference on more CPUs, memory or storage.
In stock, not on order
New enterprise hardware can take weeks or months to arrive. Ours is on the shelf in Doha and delivered across Qatar within a day.
Warranty and local support
Every unit is covered. Installation, configuration and hardware support are handled by our own team in Qatar, not a call centre abroad.
