نقد و بررسی کیس رندرینگ HP Workstation Z620

همانند بسیاری از ایستگاه های کاری HP  ، کیس HP Z620 به عنوان ابزاری کاربردی برای فعالیت های حرفه ای که طیف بالایی از پایگاه های داده، المان های طراحی ۳D ، فعالیت هایی که نیاز به چندین صفحه نمایش نیاز دارند، یا به طور کلی کسب و کار هایی که نیاز به عملکرد پایداری بسیار بالا داشت باشند را پوشش می دهد.

نقل قول هست که کیس HP z620 چهار برابر بیشتر از نسل قبلش ظرفیت رم، پاور با قدرت بالاترو پشتیبانی از یک یا دو پردازنده را می باشد. بهره مندی از پردازنده های ۲۴ هسته ای همانند قدرت اسب این کیس را به یک شبیه ساز و مجازی ساز بی بدیل تبدیل کرده ست.

Looking deeper into the HP Z620’s technical specifications show some impressive hardware and support, including its compatibility for both Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 and E5-1600 v2 families for a grand total of 27 different processors. Additionally, it also supports up to 192GB of the latest generation of system memory with 12 DIMM slots as well as integrated 1866MHz DDR3 memory subsystem, allowing the Z620 to be optimized for a 64-bit environment. As far as its power consumption goes, the new HP workstation uses and leverages an 800W 90% efficient power supply, which is ideal for high-end graphics cards if users choose to go that route. The HP Z620 also comes standard with 4x USB 3.0 ports as well as a 1-port Thunderbolt 2 and an HP IEEE 1394b FireWire PCIe cards. Users can also customize their HP Z620 Workstation with multiple different SATA and SAS RAID configuration options that support a variety of high-performance, high capacity storage solutions.

Perhaps the most impressive configurable storage option available with this HP Workstation is the option for HP Z Turbo Drives (256GB and 512GB capacities), as they add a ton of flexibility and power to the Z620. These PCIe drives offer up to twice the performance of standard high-performance SSDs, all at a similar price tag. The HP drives are based on the Samsung XP941 platform which offers peak sequential read throughput of up to ۱۱۷۰MB/s and writes up to 930MB/s.

Our HP Z620 build consists of 2 x Intel Xeon E5-2637 v2 4C 3.5GHz, 8 x 8GB 1866MHz RDIMM, a NVIDIA K2000 graphics card, 256GB Micron SSD for boot storage, 2 x 512GB Z Turbo as primary storage, Windows 8.1, DVD optical drive, and a Thunderbolt add-in card, all of which goes for a configured price of $10,216.

Design and build

On the outside, the HP Z620 looks very similar to other previous Z Workstations (such as the Z420), with its simple no frills–yet rugged and clean–design and all metal black casing. The majority of the front panel consists of a ventilation grid for maximum cooling. We thought the addition of the handle on the front was a nice touch, as it allows this sturdy rig to be easily moved around the office. There are various components located on the front panel, such as the three USB ports (2x 3.0, 1x 2.0), a microphone and head phone connector, HD drive activity light, an IEEE-3194a FireWire connector and an optional optical drive.

Rear panel components include audio connectors, six USB ports (2x 3.0, 4x 2.0), RJ-45 network connectors (bottom connector is AMT enabled), PS/2 connectors for legacy mouse and keyboard, and another IEEE-3194a FireWire connector. Also visible are two rear fans.

When the side panel is removed to access the interior of the Z620, it is immediately clear that the Workstation is indeed very compact, as HP claims. That being said, there is more than enough room to maneuver your hands for upgrades and removal of components. The interior is also intelligently designed and laid out as well as very easy to service and maintain since no tools (e.g. screwdrivers) are required.

The HP Z620 supports a plethora of features and components including our two Intel Xeon E5-2637 v2 4C 3.5GHz and eight 8GB 1866MHz RDIMM memory. With its C602 chipset, it is capable of boasting greater system performance as well as an abundance of storage options. The motherboard supports up to 12 DIMMs (8 DIMMs on system board, 4 DIMMs on 2nd CPU & Memory Module), 6 SATA devices (2 ports 6Gb/s + 4 ports 3Gb/s), 11 USB 2.0 ports, 4 USB 3.0, and dual integrated Intel GbE LAN for network connectivity. Also included on the motherboard are two x16 slots for graphics cards, one x8 slot, one x4 slot, and four x1 slots, the latter which is for legacy support.

Its on-board storage connectivity provides 6 SATA ports: 4 support SATA2.0 3Gb/s and other two support SATA3.0 6Gb/s. Both SATA 3.0 and 2.0 ports can configured in RAID0, 1, 5 and 10. An optional SAS controller can be installed LSI 9212-4i 4-port SAS 6Gb/s, which is RAID0, 1, 10 capable.

Overall, the Z620 is very intelligently designed, with its tool-less chassis, quiet running technology, and expandability options, the latter which allows users to upgrade and their needs grow in complexity and size.
