Hp ProLiant Microserver Gen 8 Plex Server
- CPU: Intel Celeron G1610T (Dual Core) @ 2.3 GHz
- RAM: 4GBÂ PC3-12800 Unbuffered ECC
- Network: 2 x 1Gbit interfaces
- Remote Management: iLO 4 Essentials presented as a separate (third) 1Gbit network interface
- RAID controller: HP Dynamic Smart Array B120i with 4 removable (not hotswap) front bays. It’s fake RAID, but it supports 0, 1 and 10
- Expansion card slots: 1 x PCI-E 16 slot
- PSU: 1 x 200W. Bit of a shame there’s no option to have a redundant pair… but there’s just not enough space.
- Network: The server comes with 2 x 10/100/1000 network interfaces, plus a separate 10/100/1000 interface for the ILO. I have used an LACP bond to provide additional throughput and redundancy across the primary pair of NICs.
Software: I have used Proxmox as the virtualization platform. It’s free and fairly feature-some. Having used it for a few years in production environments, at work, it’s proved to be reliable and useful. - Nb: it’s a Refurbished tested going at very reasonable price.
