Hello all,
I am considering buying a DL160 with the following config for a virtualization lab at home. Would this do the trick you think?
- DL160
- 128GB RAM
- 2 x HPE DL160 Gen10 Intel Xeon-S 4214R 12-Core (2.40GHz 16.50MB L3 Cache) Processor Kit
- 1 x HPE 2TB 6G 7.2k rpm HPL SATA SFF (2.5in) Smart Carrier 512e Hard Disk Drive
I would be using ESX, vCenter and Horizon View
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: DL160 Gen10 for virtualization
For baisc esxi server studycase , it only request one host, but for virtualization lab at home, I suggest you get two or three DL20 G9/G10 for multi host unit case.
I have esxi home lab with DL320Ev2 G8,DL20 G9 and DL20 G10. Also use other ML110 G9 for multi function server.

Re: DL160 Gen10 for virtualization
Well, I spent 5 hours trying to first buy a DL160 online at the HPE site but that was a total failure. Then tried the Sales expert chat and all they wanted to do was collect my contact info. They are not experts there. Then I tried "Get a quote" and the site disabled my account. Finally had to use an alias e-mail and create a new account. Finally got it to submit a form for a quote for something. Was not for what I was looking for but hopefully someone contacts me. What a mess the website stuff is. Never again. I bet the person that contacts me will be useless too.
Thanks for the help.

Re: DL160 Gen10 for virtualization
Here's the list of parts to accomplish what you'd like to have. I'd recommend checking out some of our partners like Insight, PCM, CDW, SHI, etc to find the best prices for these parts and purchase online. Then assemble them when they arrive.
you'll need to disable the onboard S100i RAID controller. If you want to use RAID in the future, you'll need a RAID card and cable kit.

Processor P21192-B21 x1
Memory P00920-B21 x7
