I am considering to buy an HPE DL560 G11 that specs follow by below

CPU: Xeon Gold 20-core CPU (2ea)

Memory: 128 GB

SSD : HPE SSD 6 ~ 12 Gb/s

Raid controller: smart Array p408i-a

Network: 10 GB Base-T network card (2ea)

ETC: Universal Media bay with 2 SFF HDD/SSD Bay

Power Supply (2EA)

Here is my question

This DL560 will be a DB server for a company

Do you think Windows Server 2022 STD can handle this DL560?

Should I take Windows Server 2022 Enterprise for this?

    Enterprise edition died with Server 2008. The editions now are Standard and DataCenter. If you plan to run a lot of virtual machines then DataCenter may be a better choice. You can compare the features here against the requirements.
