...The last server i purchased through work cost £1394.84
The ProLiant ML370 G3 is durable and easy to manage, there are many configuration possibilities and a powerful management system that makes for an ideal server in any size company.
The server is highly manageable at all times so uptime isnt a major problem, great serviceability, and expandability with great reliability and many expansion possibilities.
The speed varies on this type of server from nothing below 2.4ghz to 3.1ghz.
And with 512mb of memory and a 18.5gigabyte harddrive with room for larger drives on upgrade.
I use this in my work place and we have 32 servers all in various standards of the proliant compaq server, they replaced an IBM as400 mainframe and are great to work on, the support from compaq is excellent and the updates for servers are well managed.

Advantages: Value for Money, Upgradeability, Customer Service. Disadvantages: No Major Disadvantages
...This server is starting the trend of affordable home and small office servers. For just over £100 you can now get this fully functional server without an operating system. This smart looking tower contains a good specification of components for the price, including an AMD Dual-Core Opteron 1210 1.8Ghz Processor with 2MB Cache that is capable of multitasking. 1GB Ram as standard upgradeable to a full 8GB (Please note that 32 Bit operating systems only support upto 3.5GB RAM).
The Option of SATA or IDE storage devices. This includes 1x 160GB SATA Hard Drive. A CD-RW - DVD-ROM Combo (DVD-RW not included). This also has good networking capabilities with 1x Gigabit Ethernet port. This also has on board graphics with the option to upgrade via your PCI express slot. With a 3year next business day on-site warranty you can't get better value...

Advantages: High Density, excellent availabilty Disadvantages: Default SmartArray5i does not have option to add battery cache
...We have 12 of these machines, all with dual 2.8Ghz Xeons. The thing I like most about them is that almost everything is hot-plug. From the drives, to the fans, power supplies to the pci cards. Opening the top cover leads to an incredibly well laid out system. PCI cards can be installed and de-installed (assuming the OS supports it) while the system is up and running. I'd highly recommend you invest in the redundant fan option kit. If you're installing another processor then you really need to have this.
On a downside, the only thing that springs to mind is there is no front USB port available. With floppy discs disapppearing these days, it would have been nice. HP seem to have realised this and on the G4 servers there is now a front USB, and no floppy drive.
Managability wise these servers are fantastic. We went from using...
