Proliant GL360 G5 worth the price?

I've had good luck finding older RAM through Axiom at a good price.

You can get lucky getting memory packs from eBay sometimes too.

Axiom is who we buy all of ours through for new or not. We don't customize the ram in our servers when we order.

@Jason It's still a fact that the memory is no longer made or very rarely made.
That's not the only reason Kingston is just ridiculous prices anyway.

Not a bad price. Is this for home? Proliants like this are insanely loud.
What's the best option for quite home ones. is something like an HP z or Dell precision workstations the only good options for something quiet?
Dell tends to be quieter than HP. No perfect option. Workstations can be good choices or custom builds. Or just a really well insulated basement room.
At the price of that HP Proliant DL360 G5 I'm tempted to get one to test, and see if I can just disconnect some of the fans, and wire the RPM sensor together and see how quiet and hot it runs.

Look for the DL380 rather than the DL360, much better drive options. Price is typically almost the same. We have a DL385 G5. Still a good unit.
I found a DL380 for $190 with shipping.

How many drive bays does it offer in that configuration?

Not bad. Not a huge upgrade but you can work with eight pretty well.

$200-300?
I kinda hate you southerners just a little bit right now
-
If you get one and it's horrifically loud, just take the fans out and replace them - hard to find good quiet 40mm for that 2U though.
