    Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Photographers who need 3 drives, you will love it. This is my third, custom made HP workstation. The other two lasted 8-10 years. Finally this new one is not so heavy that I do not have to ask my neighbor to move it, were it to go to another room. The workings of the computer are perfect. I have downloaded Photoshop and replaced the many apps that are Photoshop plugins. I am delighted with my new workstation, which for a photographer as I am was custom made by HP. Two of the three drives are SSD. I was lucky to need a new workstation during the holiday sale.

    Rated 1 out of 5 by Parkera from Not very robust I liked the computer for the first 24 hours, then I moved it about 1" on the desk and the display blanked out. Fiddle with the DisplayPort plug and it worked again. Moved it again and it died again. Soon, it would not come back at all. Called HP for a replacement - no longer available. Found an alternate - during the ordering process with HP rep it too was no longer available. Eventually selected the mini version. Not as much I/O (which I now regret), but it would fit my needs. 2+ hours on the phone total. When it came time to send the defective one back, I contacted Customer Service for a return label. 1 chat, 3 phone calls, 6 people (from just the last call), 2 countries and an additional 3-1/2 hours I finally got a return label. Once I got to a person that was really willing to help, it took him over 1-1/2 hours to get me to the right person - and he had access to all previous call notes and the full HP company directory. He said "Now I understand first-hand why people get frustrated!" Once I was connected to the right person, I had the return label in my mailbox in 4 minutes. In related but separate orders, I also ordered a 24" display and a Pavillion laptop. They work OK, but ... Overall I will simply say that I have used and loved HP test equipment, printers, monitors and computers for the last 30 years. I will never buy HP again after this experience.

    Asked by: Ajayeg277
    Thank you for your question! As this HP Z2 Small Form Factor G9 is customizable with different graphics cards and different video outputs there will be two options. Depending on which graphics option is chosen you will need either a Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI or a DisplayPort to HDMI. This will also depend on whether your TV uses HDMI inputs.

    Regarding the Z2 G9 Small Form Factor Workstation, I would like to use both of NVIDIA RTX™️ A4000 and DELTACAST HDMI Capture Card (DELTA-H4K2-ELP 20) which bus interface is PCIe Gen2 x8. Is it possible to use two boards despite this is Small Form Factor?

    Asked by: inaken55
    Thank you for your question! Without knowing the dimensions of the 2 cards mentioned it is impossible for this forum to determine. The dimensions of this HP Z2 G9 Small Form Factor Workstation are 15.1 width x 12.1 depth x 3.95 height in inches. The fit will be very tight if compatible. The standard-size Workstation might be the best option in this scenario.
