The HPE 872307R-B21#ABJ is a refurbished ML110 GEN10 rack-mount server engineered for enterprise surveillance deployments where reliability and performance matter. This 1U, 4LFF (large-form-factor) chassis is built to handle continuous video ingest, transcoding, and storage from dozens of IP cameras without hiccups. It's a proven platform that survives 24/7 duty cycles in security operations centers, retail head offices, and large-scale surveillance networks.
The 872307R-B21#ABJ integrates into standard 19-inch datacenter or server closet racks. It's BIOS-flexible for both Windows Server (Milestone, Genetec, Axis Camera Station) and Linux-based NVR software stacks. Dual hot-swap power supplies (if configured) mean you can wire to redundant PDU circuits — a best practice for surveillance infrastructure where a single PSU failure shouldn't black out your recording.
The 4LFF bay configuration supports SATA drives up to 14TB, enabling a single 40TB+ recorded capacity without external SAN complexity. For hybrid surveillance setups (local NVR + cloud backup), the onboard storage is your insurance policy against WAN outages.
Package contents are subject to refurbishment lot. Typically included: chassis, two hot-swap power supplies, mounting brackets for 19-inch rack, and cable management clips. No drives, RAM, or internal media are included — these are typically provisioned separately to match your NVR software license and retention requirements.
Q: Is the 872307R-B21#ABJ refurbished or new?
A: This is a refurbished (reman) unit — factory remanufactured, tested, and verified for full performance. Refurbished HPE servers are standard issue in surveillance deployments and carry the same reliability as new hardware at a lower capital cost.
Q: What operating systems are supported on the 872307R-B21#ABJ?
A: The ML110 GEN10 platform supports Windows Server 2016, 2019, and 2022, as well as common Linux distributions (Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL). Check your NVR software vendor's compatibility matrix for certification.
Q: Can I add more than four hard drives to the 872307R-B21#ABJ?
A: The 4LFF chassis has four 3.5-inch bays. Additional storage requires external SAS arrays or NAS — common in large installations but adds cost and complexity. For most surveillance deployments, 40TB+ onboard capacity (four 10TB drives) is sufficient.
Q: What's the warranty on a refurbished 872307R-B21#ABJ?
A: Warranty terms on refurbished HPE servers vary by vendor. Confirm with the seller before purchase. Many refurbished units include a 90-day limited warranty or extended options.
Q: Does the 872307R-B21#ABJ come with RAM or storage installed?
A: No — refurbished servers ship as chassis only. RAM and drives are provisioned separately, allowing you to spec the system to your exact NVR workload and retention policy.
Q: Can this server be used outside a datacenter rack?
A: The 872307R-B21#ABJ is a 1U rack-mount server and requires a 19-inch rack cabinet or wall-mount rack frame. It is not designed for under-desk or open-shelf deployment.

The HPE 872307R-B21#ABJ hits a practical sweet spot for mid-scale surveillance NVR deployments. At 1U with four 3.5-inch drive bays, you're looking at a platform that can absorb 40TB+ of local storage without the complexity of external SAN gear. That matters when your surveillance system needs to survive a network outage — all your footage stays accessible on the appliance itself.

Deployment Considerations:
Position this unit as your backbone for distributed surveillance in multi-site retail, healthcare, or manufacturing environments where you need dense, self-contained recording at each location and can't rely on centralized storage.
