HP ProLiant ML110 G5

The HP ProLiant ML110 G5 is a small, single-socket tower server from HP, released around 2008 and now retired. It is a Micro ATX tower (4U) with room for four hard drives.

Specs of the server as it came from HP:

  • Intel 3200 chipset, with a choice of processors from single-core Celeron up to quad-core Xeon X3300 series
  • Up to 8GB of PC2-6400 unbuffered ECC DDR2 RAM
  • Integrated SATA controller with embedded RAID (4 ports for hard drives), or a SAS host bus adapter on the SAS models
  • 4 hard drive bays
  • Embedded NC105i Gigabit Ethernet adapter
  • Four expansion slots: 1 x PCI and 3 x PCI Express
  • 365W power supply
  • Optional Lights-Out 100c remote management card

How mine is set up:

It has been used as a test box for the Double Speed Internet series, with 2 GigE connections straight to the cable modems, and later as the router for the house network.
