Product: ML350p
Operating System: Other

I'm looking to setup a VM farm at my house. I can get a ML350p Gen8 with

the E5-2609 processor, 32GB of RAM for $305.00.

My questions are:

1) I want to put the E5-2670 processors in it, however I did read that you

     have to be careful which ones you get. They should be ones that had

     been sold, or were in an HP server.

2) I want to use 1TB SATA drives, do these have to be HP drives ?

 

My other choice is to buy a ML350p Gen8 with E5-2660 for about $380

Has anyone tried this?

Any and all help is appreciated

Hi:

HP split into two companies a few years back.

HP supports PCs, printers, tablets, and calculators.

HP Enterprise (HPE) supports servers, switches, routers and tape drives.

You may want to post your question on the HPE community support forum -- Proliant Servers section...
