HP ProDesk 600 G4 SFF — Six-Core Business Desktop

A small form factor business desktop with the six-core Intel Core i5-8500, 8GB of memory, a 1TB hard drive and a DVD writer, running Windows 11 Pro. Supplied with a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.

Key Benefits

• Six-core desktop processor — the i5-8500 is a full 65W desktop chip with six cores to 4.1GHz — considerably more capable than the dual-core machines common in this segment.
• 1TB of storage — a full terabyte for documents, archives and media, without needing to manage space or move files to external drives.
• DVD writer included — still genuinely useful for reading legacy archives, installing older software and burning records — increasingly rare on modern machines.
• Small form factor with expansion — a compact chassis that keeps a PCIe slot and spare drive bays, so it can be upgraded rather than replaced.
• Genuine Windows 11 Pro — activated and ready, with BitLocker, domain join and Group Policy for managed environments.
• HP commercial build — the ProDesk 600 range is HP's business line — tool-less serviceability and components specified for years of continuous use.

Performance in Use

The Core i5-8500 brings six cores at up to 4.1GHz in a proper 65W desktop package. For office work that is comfortable headroom: Microsoft 365, a heavy browser session, accounting software and a video call together without the machine becoming the constraint.

The 1TB hard drive is the specification to understand. It gives generous capacity, but it is a mechanical drive rather than solid-state, so boot and application launch will be noticeably slower than an SSD machine. If day-to-day responsiveness matters more than raw capacity, adding an SSD for the operating system is the single most effective upgrade you can make — and the chassis has the bays to keep the 1TB drive alongside it for storage.

It suits roles where capacity and optical media matter more than instant response: records management, archive access, back-office administration, or any desk still working with legacy discs. The DVD writer and full terabyte make it a practical choice where a modern SSD-only machine would be limiting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why a hard drive rather than an SSD?

This configuration was specified for capacity — a full terabyte at low cost. It is slower to boot and launch applications than an SSD machine. Adding an SSD for the operating system is a straightforward and inexpensive upgrade, and the chassis has room to keep the 1TB drive for storage alongside it.

Can I add an SSD?

Yes. There is a spare drive bay and an M.2 slot, so an SSD can be added without removing the existing 1TB drive.

Does the DVD drive write as well as read?

Yes — it is a DVD±RW writer, so it both reads and burns CD and DVD media.

Can I add more memory?

Yes — there are additional memory slots available beyond the fitted 8GB.

Is the operating system genuine?

Yes. Windows 11 Pro is installed and activated against the licence embedded in the unit.

How is data from the previous owner handled?

Every drive is wiped to a documented erasure standard before the operating system is reinstalled. Nothing from the prior deployment remains.
