Whoa this is insane. On the phone, err, handed off the call to somebody else here to further speak with a supervisor, we just took delivery of a HP DL185, and there are just placeholders for the hard disks in the cage. No empty cages provided. They claim there is no way to get an empty cage without a drive. WTF. They want $100 for a 160 gig drive when I can get 2tb Hitachis for $140. This is bull. We're ready to box this up and ship it right back. Every Supermicro we've bought have come loaded with empty sleds, and every one of those servers are still running. I know HP is a solid server and that's why we made this purchase, but this is grinding my gears.
