Can you use a desktop PC as a server?
• While it’s
possible
to use a desktop PC as a
server, keep in mind that desktop PCs are
designed and optimized for
individual
productivity, not
network
productivity.
• Compared to PCs, servers are specially
optimized and certified for Network
Operating Systems, provide more room for
expansion, and offer special server
management tools and features to ensure
data integrity, reliability, and security in a
networked environment.
• For the same price, a dedicated server is the
best value for the money.

T4i, a low-cost tape backup
system specially designed for use
with the HP NetServer E Series.
Dependability has never been
so affordable.
For high-performance backup,
choose the HP SureStore Digital
Audio Tape (DAT) backup
system and select a referenced
backup solution such as
Cheyenne™or Seagate
®
software:
the HP NetServer E Series
supports both.
A range of optional backup choices

From the low-cost HP SureStore T4i to the highperformance HP SureStore DAT drive, there’s a
solution to fit your needs.

Why is optimization important?
• While both servers and desktop PCs may offer
comparable individual components (processor,
memory, input/output systems), a real server
delivers optimized performance of those
components, ensuring all the parts work together
to provide the highest server functionality.
• Designed to transmit data as quickly as possible
to and from network users, servers are also
optimized to work with network backup systems,
allowing your important data to be stored and
recovered quickly and reliably.
