Arrived a little early, seller was very communicative and was very well packaged. Everything was updated and worked as expected out of the box. Two drives installed and the rest of the bays contained covers which was a nice surprise. My first rack server and definitely a welcome addition to my budding homelab.

This seller has been aggressively trying to push outside sales. They offered the same server but a gen 9 for 925.00. I literally blocked their email and calls. Shortly after purchase I upgraded the memory. I was getting errors galore. After several weeks or troubleshooting I tried new processors. Same errors with the banks I was populating. I checked processor pins and seen that one had been bent. I was able to bend it and the new processors worked along with all the memory banks.

I don't reviews but this purchase warrants one. Ordered the product and was given a 2 week lead time. Server was delivered on Saturday just days after ordering. Give the seller and UPS both kudos on that. The packaging was good enough and held up. The box was double banded to support the ends of the box. Otherwise the package was just fine.For the server itself everything was flawless considering that its a used server. I did have one minor issue and honestly its trivial but at the same time I purchased a given product. I had one bad stick of memory. I went through the normal process of re-seating the stick a couple times and cleaning the contacts. still had intermittent fault codes. then I swapped the channel and the fault code followed the stick. Contacted the reseller on Sunday and within the hour we had a resolution to the situation. Everyone was polite and professional . I recommend them as a supplier.

Ordered this up as a server for my small business. I had a few old desktops and laptops that were set up running various software, (security, VMS, record keeping, etc), but I wanted to declutter and set up a central server on a budget.This server fit the bill perfectly, while allowing me to configure RAID for redundancy on my system.TL;DNR: Sent server of different specs, got response and replacement super fast, server runs great!I placed my order, but was originally shipped an incorrect spec server. Incorrect CPU's, RAM, and HDD's. The one I received was damaged on one of the mounting ears as well. I snapped a few pics and sent the seller a message. I was surprised to see that I had received a response within the hour! After going back and forth for a couple hours (due to my business load, NOT due to a lack of response on their end), in more of a chat environment than an email environment, we determined that the item I was shipped was a completely different SKU, and I had a return label in minutes.They shipped out my replacement very quickly. I asked about purchasing a couple extra sticks of RAM (can never have too much), and they included a couple extra sticks of RAM at no charge to make up for the hassle!I have the server up and running now. everything works great! I would have liked to have RAID5 as opposed to RAID 1+0, but I'm happy with redundancy either way. I installed a low cost graphics card to have HDMI support and 1080p resolution, which worked perfectly. I tried to install a PCIe WIFI 6 card, but for some reason I couldn't get that to be recognized at all by the motherboard, bios, or Windows 10 Pro. Not sure if the other PCIe slot in the server is dead, or I received a dud card, but I sent it back and ordered a USB 3.0 PCIe card to try. If this doesn't work, then I'll assume the PCIe slot on the motherboard or riser is dead, and contact the seller again, but I have no doubts that they will get it taken care of!

I got this server to use as a virtualization/container Linux server. It works well. There are a few things you should know, however. The device has 8 hotswap bays. If you intend to use all of them, do a custom order or otherwise somehow acquire the extra caddies. They are 2.5" bays, meaning laptop-drive (about 9mm high) size. Be careful, because Amazon sells some 2.5" drives that are taller than laptop drives (15mm high) and those won't work. Next, the bays can only take up to 2TB drives. The RAID controller on the device has no official option to do HBA/JBOD, only RAID. There is a way around that however, there is a Linux command-line tool HP Smart Storage Admin CLI (ssacli) that can be installed, then issue the commmand "ssacli controller slot=0 modify hbamode=on" as root and then your drives will show up individually on the machine (warning, if you do this, you cannot boot from any of those drives. You have to use the USB or SD.) As just mentioned, the machine also has an internal SD card slot and USB port, so you can put your OS on one of those and free up all the drive bays for your RAID. The USB is USB 2.0 so don't expect it to be fast, but it's good enough for a Linux server IMO.I deducted one star because, if you use non-HP components in the system (all my drives are non-HP), the fans are forced to 100% speed and it is LOUD! There is NO way to change this except by installing a hacked ilo firmware, which is terrifying on its own but can even brick your server if you mess it up.If you're putting this server somewhere where the sound won't bother you and don't mind the 2TB drive limit, it is a perfectly usable machine, despite its age.
