I just ordered one of these servers and I can't wait to try it out. I'm replacing a mini itx build thats running a Celeron 847 that is a 2 core 2 thread running at 1.1Ghz. This is a big step up for me. It's really cool knowing that later on I can look forward to throwing in an E-2246G 6 core 12 thread chip and max that puppy out. I've never used a real server before and I can't wait to try out that iLo card because I never knew anything like that existed until now, it's so cool. This is a great video, thank you for sharing.

You're welcome. The reason why I use E-2246G (6 core) instead of E-2288G which the maximum CPU which does 8 core (16 threads) because I do not want to risk overheat on my CPU. If they provide better Heat Sink and cooler then I would of use this 8 core version instead.

@AnChanTech

The system always support Generic vendor which are HP stock parts. The reason why HP say only original parts work because that is part of the manufactures recommendation. It is like buy ink for the printer and they do not buy recycle ink because this affects the printer's lifecycle. Most PCs will support popular makes such as Kingston, Crucial, Samsung, Global Memory as they are compatible if you upgrade the BIOS. Also buying original parts such as HP SSD or HP Memory cost more than the popular brand which can do better than HP parts such as Memory, Hard Drives and SSD. They work fine if you buy the right parts.

After you add the iLO Card to the Server, you plug in the ethernet cable and you will see the iLO IP address when you boot up the server. Basically means, the system will automatically see it. You can console it once you know the iLO IP Address. It does not require setup if I remember the 1st time.

I'm not really sure what this video is trying to be, it was neither a tour or an upgrade guide, it was just you putting in some components you bought without really explaining any thought process around that. How did you determine which CPU you were upgrading to? what is the power draw of all of your components under load? How much power can the stock PSU provide? What headroom does that leave? What is the TDP rating on that heatsink, I could be wrong but it looks like 71w and that processor you upgraded to is an 80w TDP , I'm sure it's probably fine, that heatsink probably is good for a bit more than 71w but you should have gone some way to explain in better detail how various power and thermal factors must be considered when upgrading these things rather than that stuff about tiers and overclocking which just made no sense. Who exactly do you think is overclocking hp microservers? Extremely unlikely for many many reasons. Just sayin'
@AnChanTech

It is both as I show on this video. As for component I put in the MicroServer. Before I make videos I make sure I do my research and gather information before I present this. I do try and explain as I can, if not, link in the description box will explain this more. As for 'who exactly do I think who overclocking HP MicroServers' and for my TDP explanation I will tell you this: There there tech hobbyists out there who does this just to push their motherboard to the limit just like gamers does and this the reason before thermal tier. But I never encourage this. I have to make a balance between performance and CPU temperature which is being realistic. Also you ask about which CPU I upgrading to: I put that link in my description box which from the 'HomeServer Show'.
