Why a Workstation?

HP recommends Windows.
Solution guide | Why a Workstation?
1. Maximum memory capacities assume Windows 64-bit operating systems or Linux. With Windows 32-bit operating systems, memory above 3 GB may not all be available
due to system resource requirements.
2. For hard drives, 1 GB = 1 billion bytes. TB = 1 trillion bytes. Actual formatted capacity is less. Up to 20 GB (for Windows 7) and up to 30 GB (For Windows 8.1) of hard drive
(or system disk) is reserved for the system recovery software.
3. Results based on the SPECapc benchmarks for DS SolidWorks 2013 and the Cinebench 11.5 CPU benchmark test; comparing an HP Z230 Tower Workstation with an Intel®
Core™ i5-4690 processor to an HP Z230 Tower Workstation with an Intel® Xeon® E3-1241 v3 Processor. All other system congurations were selected to be as equal as possible.
4. Thunderbolt™ 2 is available via an optional add-in card on the Z1 G2, Z230 SFF, Z230 Tower, Z440, Z640, and Z840. Thunderbolt cable and Thunderbolt device (sold separately)
must be compatible with Windows. To determine whether your device is Thunderbolt Certied for Windows, see thunderbolttechnology.net/products.
5. Not all features are available in all editions or versions of Windows. Systems may require upgraded and/or separately purchased hardware, drivers and/or software to take
full advantage of Windows functionality. See.microsoft.com.
