Overview
When ordering options for your Proliant server, note the Generation ("G" designation) for your system. HP uses the same ML, DL, and BL model numbers for multiple generations of servers. When ordering disk drives for servers purchased after 2005, pay special attention to SAS SATA SSD and SCSI options (as well as LFF vs SFF choices) as HP offers different back plane options for recently shipped systems.
