Reply To: HP Microserver Gen 10 Plus and vmware ESXi 7.x Hi all, Does anyone here use a Hp Microserver gen 10 plus (xeon processor version, not pentium processor) and use vmware esxi 7 on it? Did it install ok? …

Hi, oo I see we have a new category now, thanks!

 

I haven’t but personally I’m not a fan of Dell.  Company i work for has recently moved to Dell for hardware and I have to say, they are truely appalling.  We have had soo many issue “out of the box” that is is awful.  Not to mention the ongoing issues.

I was looking at the HP microserver as the Gen 8 has been a nice little machine and the HP Gen 10 Plus is half the height and would be ideal but i’m not too sure about the compatibility with esxi.  it shows on the list bu as mentioned some varied reports on if it does/doesn’t work.  I bought the Gen 8 microservers for a good price due to cashback on offer etc but the Hp Gen 10 plus woudl be a fair bit more investment but as I’ve had no issues with the Gen 8 microserver, it’s been rock solid, albeit in a home environment, it on all the time and just sits there, its doesn’t make much noise, and just does what it says on the tin and has a ilo port so i can access it remotely if required, which is rare but very handy on odd occasion i do :)

Thanks
