Hi, I have another bunch of Enterprise servers have been retired. 

 

Asking $100 each pickup in Auckland as they are too big for shipping unless you send me a box etc ;-)

 

All are HPE ProLiant DL380p Gen8 with a min of 256GB RAM but a couple might be 384GB RAM - free bonus.
All are dual PSU, have a Fibre Card and a couple of HDD for BOOT in a caddy (73gb SAS or 146gb SAS). They have rail kits.

 

Two are dual E5-2665 8Core 
Four are dual E5-2650 8Core
The only difference is a slight bump in max turbo on the 2665.
These make great homelab or test servers for new hypervisors etc.

timbosan:

 

How noisy? I have a cabinet downstairs, would I hear them upstairs? I assume they are reasonable being 2U?

 

 

If they are anything like other HPE's, at full fan (e.g. boot or not air-conditioned in summer) you'd want hearing protection.. under normal use I've found my G8/G9's fairly standard for rack servers, but still massively louder than desktop computers and with absolutely zero wife acceptance factor..

 

There's a reason I built a dedicated, soundproofed, air-conditioned server room when I brought my house :-)
