Pretty solid machine, better than new generation of HP server in terms of build quality! Also a old 2950 switch behind!

    I moved up to G8s a while back. 3 DL360G8 for ESXi hosts, and a DL380G8 for TrueNAS SAN host. Downgraded one of the old ESXi hosts (360G7) to backup server. With 5 servers running, it’s not quiet. One running isn’t that loud, but I wouldn’t want it on a common space still :)

        I did not change the systems in anyway other than any HP firmware updates I could get to most current.

        360 is dual socket 1U. 380 is dual socket 2U. 580 is quad socket 4U
