I want to buy a used older model HP DL rack server, but I am confused. I would like a large array of hot-swap 2.5" SATA interface trays, and 2 power supplies. I am building my 2nd freeNas server, and the one I have now has out-grown it's hardware.
Does anyone here know the variation differences on these HP GEN-5/6/7/8 series rack servers? What confuses me (unless I am reading things wrong) is that the same HP dl 380 G6 appears to run the same series XEON processors as G7, using the same PC3 registered ram. I am having trouble choosing a model. I was hoping someone here could have some insight with their experience, please?
