HP Inc. today revealed the world’s most powerful entry
workstations1 for product designers, architects, creative
professionals, OEMs, educators and financial/office workers. The
bold new HP Z Workstation lineup will enhance productivity of
professional workflows and deliver powerhouse cost-optimized
performance with software-certified experiences, without
sacrificing graphics power, expandability, seamless experience or
security.
“The number one thing we hear from creative professionals and
other power users is the need for higher-performance PCs built to
meet their needs. Our new HP Z workstation portfolio addresses this
by delivering the world’s most powerful entry workstations,” said
Xavier Garcia, vice president and general manager, HP Z
Workstations, HP Inc. “By combining superb graphics performance,
flexible configuration options, integrated software experiences in
the world’s most secure desktop workstations2, the new HP Z lineup
has been thoughtfully designed to unleash creativity, maximize
productivity and reinvent future workflows.”
Workstation users are experiencing rapid workflow changes that
require hardware and technology capabilities to keep pace. The
workflows are becoming more complex, more customized and more time
constrained. To remain on schedule, users need systems that can
deliver continuous, fast, seamless and future-ready performance, as
well as reliable workstations that can protect data and keep work
secure.
The new HP entry workstations, the HP Z2 Mini, HP Z2 Small Form
Factor and HP Z2 Tower, as well as the HP EliteDesk 800 Workstation
Edition are the world’s most secure and manageable workstations2.
Built-in end-to-end HP security services provide powerful
protection from evolving malware threats with the first and only
self-healing BIOS and unique HP endpoint security controller.
Customers get powerful protection from hardware-enforced security
solutions including HP Sure Start Gen43 and HP Sure Run4 which help
keep critical processes running, even if malware tries to stop
them. Additionally, HP’s Manageability Kit Gen 2 easily manages
multiple devices.
All HP Z2 Workstations which are designed to 24/7 workstation
reliability standards, can now connect with Thunderbolt™ for fast
device connections and offer an expansive array of certifications
for the most popular applications. HP Performance Advisor is
available to optimize software and drivers, and customers can
deploy Intel® Xeon® processors and ECC memory for added
reliability. The customization, expandability, performance
upgradeability and I/O options help future-proof HP Z Workstation
purchases.
Performance to Dramatically Improve
Workflows
Today, workstation users demand accelerated performance to
dramatically improve workflows. This fourth-generation entry HP Z
Workstation family includes:
HP Z2 Mini G4 Workstation, the world's most powerful mini
workstation5, delivers next-level performance in a remarkably small
package (2.7 liters in total volume). Compared to the previous
generation HP Z2 Mini, it has two times more graphics power.
Customers will experience industry-leading visual compute
performance from the NVIDIA® Quadro® P600 or NVIDIA Quadro P1000
GPU. In addition, there is the option for AMD Radeon Pro™ WX4150
graphics. The whisper-quiet HP Z2 Mini is the world’s quietest mini
workstation6.
Its stunning, versatile, space-saving design allows users the
flexibility to mount under a desk, behind a display or in a rack --
up to 56 HP Z2 Mini workstations will fit in a standard 42U rack
with the custom rackmount bracket accessory7. With its flexible
I/O, users can configure the system for connectivity of legacy
serial ports, as well as support for up to six displays for
peripheral and display connectivity needs. The innovative design
and flexibility also let users create their ideal setup—from the
trading desk to the shop floor to the data center. For added
reliability, the HP Z2 G4 Mini, the world’s only mini workstation
with six core Intel® Xeon® Processors8, allows customers to deploy
it in mission critical environments with confidence.
HP Z2 Small Form Factor (SFF) G4 Workstation delivers 50 percent
more processing power than the previous generation in the exact
same super compact size. The six core CPU provides significant
performance boosts making the HP Z2 SFF the world's most powerful
small form factor workstation9. The HP Z2 SFF takes customization
to the next level with flexible I/O options that free up valuable
PCIe slots, while providing customization for legacy or specialized
equipment, and for changing display needs.
As the world's most expandable commercial SFF PC10, the HP Z2 G4
SFF is the perfect hardware solution for customization needs. It
ships with four PCIe slots and dual M.2 storage slots. Its flexible
I/O option enables users to customize networking, I/O or display
needs without taking up PCIe slots or adding external adapters.
With such upgradeable performance and expandability features, as
well as versatile mounting and installation options, the Z2 SFF is
ideally suited for AEC, product developers and OEM power users.
HP Z2 Tower G4 Workstation, the world’s most powerful entry
workstation11, is designed to tackle complex workloads like BIM and
rendering with up to Ultra 3D graphics and the latest Intel® Core™
or Intel® Xeon® processors. The HP Z2 Tower is equipped to handle
demanding 3D projects with over 60 percent more graphics power than
the previous generation. With high clock speeds, users can get full
unthrottled performance, even with the heaviest workloads.
The new design features front and rear ledges so users can
easily move the system from location to location and is 13 percent
smaller than the previous generation. To boost reliability, the HP
Z2 Tower and the SFF offer HP’s innovative optional dust filter to
keep the system clean while sitting on a factory floor or machining
environment. With dual M.2 storage slots users can install the
pro-grade storage and optional self-encryption drives to help
ensure valuable IP cannot be accessed.
For demanding PC users who want to upgrade their performance,
and have a professional certified desktop, HP offers the HP
EliteDesk 800 Workstation Edition. As the most affordable
professional certified commercial desktop12, it is ideal for users
who want to upgrade to a workstation-class desktop with integrated
ISV certified applications experience.
Designed for 2D/3D design and drafting, this SolidWorks and
AutoCAD-approved desktop gives users seamless, reliable performance
not available in a business-class PC. It is also out-of-the box
optimized for leading VR engines, allowing VR developers to bring
their content to life with NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 1080. The HP
EliteDesk 800 Workstation Edition includes specialized workstation
customer support and has broad expandability.
