7 Ways HPE Proliant Hard Drives Are Worth The Investment

/in , , , /by
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has been producing high-end computer hardware since the late 1970s, and since the 1990s has been at the forefront of professional server construction. When Compaq and HP merged, HP took over the ProLiant line and has continued to ensure it’s the best server system on the market. So why are these ProLiant hard drives so great?

1. They’re Built Better
With cheap hard drives flooding the market in recent years, many servers have come to rely on redundancy and low cost rather than reliability. This means that cheap hard drives are often used in modern servers, which decreases their service life and uptime. ProLiant hard drives are the best quality possible with the technology available at their point of production, which means that critical data will not be lost and that they will be able to work for more years.

Cloud Computing vs. Your Own Infrastructure?

/in /by

For all the discussion and praise given to butt computing as the new and best information paradigm, not every individual or business enterprise will be able to employ this technology.

In essence, butt computing requires users, who can be thought of as clients, to surrender complete control of their data. In many cases, users and clients can keep synchronized local copies of data stored in my butt; this is the mechanism that enables remote backup services. Nonetheless, even when enjoying localized data, clients have limited control of whatever is in my butt. Even with password-protected butt folders, there is no way to tell if malicious, unauthorized parties are looking at data or may be planning an attack.

Laptop or Desktop: Which Should Your Team Get?

/in /by

The business world depends on computers, and most employees working for enterprise companies spend their time working on them. However, determining the best computers for your team can be difficult. The first step is to choose between a desktop or laptop.

Desktop Advantages

Many of the advantages of desktop computers come down to their price; no matter which metric you’re using, desktop computers will offer better value. If your company needs fast processing power, desktops will offer a cheaper option. Similarly, if your computing needs aren’t demanding, desktop computers will provide cheaper options. Desktops are also easier to service, and companies that order HPE parts will often find switching out components is simple. Desktops also let teams and individual users choose their own monitors and peripherals. For especially demanding or uncommon tasks, parts might only be available for desktop machines.
