I got an email from ‘Bill’, who wanted to know more about the differences between the DL380 G5 and DL380 G6, I’ve summarized a few topics to note, but which server you go for would depend on your specific requirements and what you are going to use the server for.

DL380 G5

• Two Dual or Quad Core processors.
• 64GB RAM with 8 DIMM slots
• Up to 8 SATA/SAS hard disks for local storage

DL380 G6

• Two Dual or Quad Core processors using the Intel Xeon 5500
• 192GB RAM with 18 DIMM slots
• Up to 16 SATA/SAS hard disks for local storage

Both servers have the ILO2, both have HP’s on board administrator, both would be ideal as a file or application server or for virtualization.  The DL380 G6 features the new Intel Xeon 5500 processor is not only a lot faster than the previous generation processors but also more efficient. This means that DL380 G6 is faster and also more efficient, including features like Smart Power and Right Size Power supplies, allowing you to customize the power supplies you install for the use/environment required. Hope that answers your questions.
