There is a high chance i could get a hp proliant dl380 g7 server for free in a few weeks. What should i use it for? What do you think about it?

I'd use it as a server

I'd use it as a network file server. All it needs now is an 8-pack of those new seagate 10TB helium drives. With RAID-6, that's 60TB of storage space. I'd never have to delete a torrent again.

>tfw you will never download enough to fill up all of those hard drives with your internet connection and it would take up the lifetime of the drive to download that much data
350 megs down 20 up

raid 6 is such a bad idea. aside from restructuring taking forever its not actually that secure

A boat anchor
Sell it to some idiot who thinks that is a useful server
>What do you think about it?
It's shit. Uses too much power for it to be of any value. Take the proceeds of whatever you sell it for to save up for your next computer.

Nope. 2TB max per drive on this POS.
