The answer to which one is better for you will probably be more dependent on your server architecture/environment. The DL's allow for fewer internal drives but generally allow for more processors per unit. DL's are great for a rack mount environment. The ML's can be rack mounted as well but most units have a larger footprint. <BR /><BR />Check out the quick stats on both:<BR /><BR /><A href="http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/index-ml.html" target="_blank">http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/index-ml.html</A><BR /><A href="http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/index-dl.html" target="_blank">http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/index-dl.html</A><BR /> Mon, 27 Sep 2004 08:43:43 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/hp-dl-vs-ml-which-one-is-the-best-from-database-server/m-p/3387228#M5316 Robert Abbott 2004-09-27T08:43:43Z
