    HP Gen9, P840 drive woes

    I have been working with Proliant gear for over 20 years and recently made the jump from G7 to Gen9 in the lab. Things were great for a few months, but now two of my DL380 Gen9 12x3.5 SAS w/P840 controllers are exhibiting strange disk behavior. Full disclosure, I am using OEM HP trays with...

    Server 2016 vs 2019 vs Win 10

    Hi everyone. My name is Boris, from Nevada. This is my first post. :) I’m getting a ProLiant ML350p Gen 8 server soon. It will arrive next week. The system doesn’t have any drives so that means it doesn’t have an OS. I am looking for recommendations and feedback on which version I should...

    Proliant ml350e gen8 v2 fan replacement

    I'd like to replace the Delta PFR0912XHE-BC90 jet engines with something less crazy, and make this server more home friendly. I've tried hooking up ebmpapst 3252J/2HP but they run full speed and ILO reports fan error. The only suitable datasheet i can find for the delta fans are PFR0912XHE-SP00...

    LFF bays on HP DL20 Gen10

    Hi .. I'm usually a white-box kind of guy but am considering recommending an HP Proliant DL20 Gen10 1U machine. We could get the base model which has 2 LFF (3.5") non-hot-swap drive bays. Will I be able to somehow stuff a Samsung 2.5" SATA 860 PRO drive in there, with at least a moderate level...

    Small office ESXi server sanity check

    I need to replace an ageing HP DL360 G6 running a 4x disk RAID 10 array of SAS drives. It has the 1GB flash backed write cache option. It’s hosting Zimbra, UniFi, Plex (just me using that) and Elastix PBX plus a few light weight lab type VMs. At most it sees 2-3 users concurrently. I pay the...

    FreeNAS on HP ML10 v2

    Hi all, is it all right to open a new thread to see how many of you succesfully run FreeNAS on the HP ML10 v2 server? What I'm trying to do is building a cheap freenas box (with 8GB RAM) to use for replication of my main freenas machine. So definitely investigating if the RAID controller works...

    DL180 GL iLO

    Hi everyone ! This is my first post here :) Before posting here I searched all day and couldn't find an answer : I have a DL180 G6, with 2 RJ45 and no management port. I've read here that I could use one of the 2 RJ 45 instead by setting it in the BIOS. But when I use DHCP it won't get any IP...

    Proliant DL360 G6 + DL180 backplane (+ PCI-E HBA) = Fan noise?

    I have read that DL360 G6 fan goes crazy if you put hdd that dosent support (smart 194 temperature?). I have Dl360 g6 in a custom case that can fit 12x 3.5" dl180 g6 backplane. I was thinking of connecting all my drives to that backplane as I have few drives that don't give temperature in right...

    ProLiant DL180 gen 9 vs custom build with Asus Z10PE-D16

    Hi, My Supermicro X9SAE died so I need a new server. I'm debating whether to build a new server or buy the HPE ProLiant DL180 Gen 9. My primary use for this server is as a vmware esxi server hosting pfsense, solaris, and a couple of Windows, OS X, Linux and FreeBSD vm's. I'm mostly doing web...
