With very few contenders in sight, HP is turning heads with its latest Intel Xeon powered mini PCs designed for compact performance. The HP Z2 Mini Workstation is expected to be available worldwide in December starting at $945.00 CAD.
HP unveiled the world’s first mini workstation designed for users in CAD and other compute-intensive industries. The stylish, new HP Z2 Mini Workstation delivers breakthrough power and versatility and at only 2.3” high is 90 per cent smaller than a traditional business-class tower.
“The HP Z2 Mini, the world’s first mini workstation, delivers breakthrough power and versatility in a small, iconic design,” said Jeff Wood, vice president and general manager, Workstations and Thin Clients, HP Inc. “HP redefined the workstation in 2009 with the introduction of the HP Z series, and now once again is disrupting the category with the new HP Z2 Mini Workstation - the ultimate combination of space efficiency, elegance and power for our customers and partners.”
Outfitted with up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM and an HP Z Turbo Drive, with M.2 SSD read speeds over 1GB/s and a capacity up to 1.5TB.
HP can get one with an Intel Core i7, i5, or i3 CPU, or if needed, Intel's server class Xeon E3-1200v5 processors.
