Does anyone have experiance with both or either of these Servers? I currently have a Proliant 1500 and its been good. Concerns are for the future and growth. Currently have 20 clients and am moving towards 40 with WEB access/hosting in mind. I realize they are both probably overkill for me at this time. Any thoughts?
 
According to Compaq the current 3000 models are being discontinued, so you can get a good deal right now. They will announce new Xeon models next year.
 
Well Compaq is axing the 3000 because they are still highly parallel processing.....and&nbsp;&nbsp;most of the server world is smp.....Depends on what ur looking for...Compaq is cutting up their servers line between rack mount models and non rack mount models..<br><br>I like the ml370 for pedestal and the dl380 for rack.....both r formerly Proliant 1600's <br>The proliant 16000 was one the most reliable, fault tolerent servers&nbsp;&nbsp;on the market today.Both ML and DL r still&nbsp;&nbsp;dual smp...If u need quad proc's look at the&nbsp;&nbsp;5500 or the 6400.......
