Hi,

wouldn't you also want to make this decision based on what storage the server will connect to?

See the quickspecs for supported FC HBAs:

http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13595_na/13595_na.html

Under the section "HP StorageWorks Options" you will find the FC HBA cards that are supported for the DL380 G7.

Cable's are not listed in there.

The 3800 is a 2Gb switch so maybe you would want to get a 4Gb card, because that does 4/2/1 while the 8Gb only does 8/4/2.
