I got this "hp proliant dl120 g6" from the old office.
Can someone tell me if what can I do with this kind of server?

Thank's in advance.

Fan noise may be loud for use in an occupied room, perfect for basement. But maybe not a problem, try it.

Likely has ECC DDR3. ECC DDR3 used to cost a ton, not so much now. intel xeon 3400 series cpu = reasonably fast processor from 2009. http://ark.intel.com/products/series/42926/Intel-Xeon-Processor-3400-Series#@All

I use an old server as a file/media server running windows and PLEX. When not serving data the server runs BOINC to cure cancer.

IF the server boot/runs well then likely selling as a running server is better than parting it out. If you sell it make sure the disk is cleaned up. Note: shipping cost will be high, that PC likely weighs a ton.
