Mission-critical reliability
We understand your work is critical and
system down time or failure is not an
option. HP ZBooks are designed and tested
to comprehensively address reliability
in all its forms, so you can rest assured
your workstation will keep up in the most
demanding environments.
Business-rugged design
HP ZBooks are designed to stand up to
the rigors of users who are constantly on
the go. HP uses third party vendors to test
the HP ZBooks to military standards for drop,
vibration, dust, temperature, and altitude.
Tested beyond industry standards
HP knows you challenge your workstations
every day, so HP does too. HP Z Workstation
engineers conduct 120,000 hours of rigorous
testing to ensure world-class reliability. In
engineers push the limits of processors,
memory, and other system parts. This
three-axis testing uses proprietary tools
and techniques, and stresses components
in ways that help detect potential design
or component weaknesses that would
otherwise go unnoticed. In some cases,
issues that have been previously overlooked
by our component vendors. We have strong
vendors, which enable us to obtain and
integrate improved components into our
systems, many of which are unique to
HP Z Workstations.
ECC memory for data integrity
Memory errors can happen anywhere,
as a system crash in the middle of a critical
operation.
Error Correction Code (ECC) memory detects
and corrects soft errors in the memory
our workstations so your mission-critical
applications can run smoothly with minimized
