Leopold:

First, check the HP website for the latest bios. If the 330 is more than a year old, then there is probably a new firmware for it. It might not be necessary to have it though.

Second, the management agents should not matter, but if you want to do some pre-configuration work, update the server with the latest available SSD for NT4. Afterwards, you should not have a problem upgrading to Windows 2000. Just make sure you have the OS requirements covered. I think it is SP3 for NT4 or SP5, I don't remember.

After the upgrade, you will want to run the latest available SSD for Windows 2000.
