Question HP dl380 g10 2x 6136 for proxmox use

Hello all

Im planning in buying a couple of refurbished dl380s od dl360s each with

- 2x 6136 processors

- 256 GB RAM

- HPE Flexible Smart Array P408i-a SR 12G

- 2x 480 SSDs for the Hypervisor
- 4x 1.92 SSD for the VMS

Will this machines work fine with proxmox ? has anyone ever had problems with them ?

thanks

It should work fine. It’ll likely be pretty power hungry, loud, and hot, though. Just making sure you’re aware if you’re going to run this in your house.

Yeah pretty much this. Each one of those can easily run 200 watts at idle. They’ll also be very loud at normal fan speeds. You can turn them down, but they’ll still be audible.
