In the end, you'll probably need to get familiar with what performance various configurations can provide with different workloads, and choose based on each individual system/client's needs.

This question on SF covers a lot of relevant detail too: You may want to consider Intel DC / S series drives since they provide power-loss protection although they're targeted at enterprise markets, you'll still spend far less than you would for vendor-branded drives. This blog post mentions testing with newer-generation PERC controllers where single-SSD configurations actually outperformed testing on multiple drives, due to bottlenecking at the controller. Without garbage collection, you'd see performance go downhill very quickly after a short period of normal use.Īs for the effect of RAID configuration with SSDs on user experience, I'd say you should expect mixed results. Most Dell-branded MLC SSDs today tend to be made by Intel, with a SandForce controller on the SSD to cover the garbage collection. That means you will need an SSD with built-in garbage collection. It not only has lots of storage capacity for a 2U rack server, but also excellent expansion potential, extremely good build quality as well as HP’s feature-packed iLO3 embedded controller and Insight software.Keep in mind that most all Enterprise RAID controllers still don't support SATA TRIM / SCSI UNMAP (give it another couple years and they likely will). HP’s ProLiant D元80 G7 is a standard setter in so many areas.

HP's ICE software is easier to deploy than Dell's Management Console and is capable of providing superior power management and monitoring functions. HP's management package is also easily the best on the market with the iLO3 controller providing a unique set of features. It's not as good value as Dell's PowerEdge R710, but it beats that server hands down for storage capacity and expansion potential. With the single E5640 quad-core Xeon processor under load from SiSoft Sandra this peaked at a mere 145W.įor a 2U rack server, the ProLiant D元80 G7 is capable of taking on a wide range of roles.

With Server 2008 Enterprise R2 in idle we measured a draw of only 72W.

Power consumption was very low, although bear in mind the review system had a fairly basic specification. This only covers the rear half of the motherboard, is used to support the riser cards and is much easier to remove and replace. HP has made some significant changes internally to the new server as the massive metal plate that shrouded the entire motherboard in the G6 has been turfed out and replaced with a smaller version.

You can remotely upgrade firmware on servers, use thresholds on critical components to send alerts and, with the optional Power Manager upgrade, monitor server power consumption, processor performance or inlet air temperatures and view historical graphs. ICE provides a smart browser interface with detailed reports on system operations and asset management. This can manage HP servers with Insight agents installed, as well as other SNMP compliant devices.

The new Windows remote console could be smoothly stretched and shaped to whatever dimensions we desired.įor general server and network device management, HP's Insight Control Edition (ICE) software is provided. During testing we confirmed that the new remote control services are noticeably faster with a mouse action that exhibited little or no lag.
