[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very impressed with this HP Z2 Mini G9 Workstation and it is perfect for our home business. It offers everything I need and more.
This mini-desktop is cutting edge and beautifully designed. The performance is also very good. Linux support is phenomenal. It is actually very quiet which is great.
Set up is simple and easy. Just connect your monitor to the computer. Plug the computer power cord and monitor power cord into an AC outlet. Connect the included mouse and keyboard to the computer. Then turn on the computer and set up a WLAN connection via your Internet router. Then simply connect your other devices, such as a printer, and you are all set.
The Z logo on the front can be rotated to match the orientation. The power button is on the opposite side. It will easily fit anywhere where you need it while its flexible, modern design will look nice anywhere you put it. It is easily portable as well if you want to move it to and from different locations.
Backplane connectivity includes three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, two DisplayPort video outputs, and high-bandwidth 10Gbps Ethernet. The graphics card offers four mini-DisplayPort video outputs. A Kensington lock slot and the power connector round it out. The remaining ports are on the right side. A headset jack is common on all configurations. My unit's left bank has three USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (one Type-C and two Type-A), all supporting power delivery.
I love that this system has HP ZCentral Remote Boost. This is the company’s remote connection software and comes bundled with all HP Z Workstations, including the new Z2 Mini G9. It has been designed for use with physical workstations rather than virtual machines (VM). In essence, Remote Boost connects an endpoint device to a Z workstation in your office or home, allowing users to access the system for graphics-intensive work via the end-point device. This is a feature I love and is great.
This HP Z2 Mini G9 is overall a truly excellent system. It is a system that can tackle most professional workloads and I love the compact, but powerful, size. If you are looking to upgrade your computer system then this is a high quality one that does everything and more.
Pros: Affordable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so amazed at the power this mini workstation has. i7, 32gb RAM, 512 SSD, NVIDIA 8GB graphics...all of this in the tiny case. I know what you're thinking...what about thermal control and ports? Well, after playing Fortnite and getting through a couple CAD designs, I haven't seen this perform poorly yet or start to overheat. Obviously this isn't designed as a "gaming pc" and over long periods probably wouldn't have the cooling needed, but it can handle anything needed for the every day or business user. So impressed with this mini workstation, will be getting more when needed.
Pros: Lightweight

HP Z2 Mini G9 Workstation

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The HP Z2 Mini G9 Workstation is a great piece of machinery. We absolutely love it. It is tiny, so it hardly takes up any space at all. It was so simple to setup as well. Just plug and play. Then once you have it running, I just followed all the guided prompts and I was good. I have to say with the speed of this computer it is like lightning in a bottle. We can't wait to start keeping our files in order and possibly using for a side business. I would absolutely recommend this, it's a no brainer!
Pros: Lightweight

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this HP Z2 Mini workstation for a few weeks now and it is definitely the nicest and most powerful computer I have ever owned. The speed and the graphics are both incredible and I love the compact design that does not take up much space in my little office. The set up was very easy and the unit itself is a nice matte black color and lightweight. I am very impressed with this new model and would recommend it.
