Pros good perform and small physical
Cons The price may be high
Recommended it? Yes

The compaq servers are our company standard. There are over 100 servers in our company. All these servers seldom have problem. But the printer servers often have problem. This server is compaq 3000. We do not know why these problem occur. Maybe there are too many printers connect this server( about... Read full review »

Simply best in class

Pros Compact, powerful, great rackmount server.
Cons Higher price.
Recommended it? Yes

The Compaq DL380 rocks. In a large datacenter, I can't see a reason to use any other brand - Compaq thinks things through.

First things first - physical characteristics. Getting this thing out of the box and mounted in the rack no problem. You get a superior cable-management arm,... Read full review »

Awkwardly Positioned App Server

Pros Good capacity for upgrades, solidly built, smaller than some
Cons Lacks lights-out-management of their 1U servers, Others build the same in 2U
Recommended it? Yes

My company, then almost entirely a Dell shop for x86 hardware, came into possession of a half-dozen Compaq DL380s to be used as Linux boxen. We looked at the DL380s when we picked servers before, but opted for Dell 2450 due to their smaller size (2U instead of 3U).

Compared to the Dells,... Read full review »

HP DL380 G4 Proliant rack mounted server is very loud

Pros The techs say this is a great server for a data center.
Cons You'll need hearing protection if near it for long.
Recommended it? No

I'm not a hardware technoid, but wanted to pass along that the DL380 G4 Proliant servers are very loud. When they start up in quiet mode, it sounds like a jet starting up. In the loud mode it is much worse. It's not at all quiet. In many applications this may not be an issue but if people are... Read full review »

Pros Small, good support, a known name
Cons expensive
Recommended it? Yes

I am a hosting network administrator and this is the server of choice for me. So far we have had very few problems with them (I run 20 of them now). They come with SmartStart software for easy install. I have only used NT on them, but a few friends of mine run Red Hat linux without problems. I run... Read full review »
