The HP ProLiant DL160 Generation 8 Is Just a dual-socket, high-performance, dense rack server having improved manageability and scalability fitted to High-Performance Computing (HPC) environments, web functioning along with different hyper-scale surroundings.

The HPE ProLiant DL160 server can service around two Chips from Intel’s E5 2600 chip series for also a maximum internal storage capability of 16TB as well as the maximum memory capacity of 768GB. HPE’s iLO administration Engine carries a multitude of management tools inserted onto the system and will be accessed to simplify server administration. The machine has two PCIe expansion slots and will encourage free travel if desirable. Tool-less access to most of the parts and cabling throughout the system help it become simple to upgrade and support.

Efficiency

Even the DL160 server may encourage a max of two Intel Xeon E5 2600 chips for a total. Six, also eight chip models can support Intel’s hyperthreading technology that makes it possible for one microprocessor to act like two chips to the operating system.

Memory

With a two-chip setup, the HPE DL160 Gen8 system Can hold half of a number using a single chip, or up to 2 4 DDR3 DIMM slots. This system supports load reduced (LRDIMM), unbuffered (UDIMM), and enrolled (RDIMM) memory modules( however, all these are distinct memory systems that can’t be combined inside the computer system. Using 2 4 x  32GB LRDIMM memory modules, the system can support the maximum memory capability of 768GB. Depending on the configuration, memory could run at rates of 1066MHz, 1333MHz, or even 1600MHz. HPE introduced their SmartMemory modules with servers that were Gen8 reducing power use.

Storage

Up to 8 small-form variables (SFF) or around four large-form Factor (LFF) hot-plug SAS/SATA drive bays are supported. Both of the SFF and LFF configurations feature an optical drive. Max’s internal storage ability of 16TB is realized by employing a 4 x 4TB LFF SATA or SAS configuration. ProLiant Gen8 servers support HPE’s SmartArray controllers that are designed to find drive failures before they take place.

Expansion

This server has two PCI-E 3.0 expansion slots G. The first expansion slot may fit either a Half Length full-height that is / Card or some full-length growth card. To access the instant Low-profile expansion slot, also an enlargement card must be used in the first slot. You will find two USB 2.0 ports on the Front Part of the chassis, together with four inside the Rear plus yet another internal for a total of ports. A USB Cable Gen8 Kit must be purchased to utilize the inner port.
