CREATE... MODEL... SIMULATE... ANYWHERE!

HP ZBook Mobile Workstations meet the demands of mobile users who

work with professional and technical applications, large and complex

datasets or intricate 3D models.

From the outside, these rugged machines look like any other laptop. But

inside, beats a graphics-intense, computationally-dense organ that pumps

up the graphics and powers out data-intensive computations.

These devices are not for the faint of heart. Instead, they give scientists,

engineers, artists, and other professionals the freedom to exercise their

productivity — without sacrificing performance.

Consider, for example, an engineer that needs to simulate naturally fractured

reservoirs using dual-porosity and dual-permeability modeling while in the

field. Or an animator that needs to create 3D animation models and effects

while on a faraway set. Or even a financial planner that needs to perform a

Monte Carlo simulation to calculate investment risk while in a client’s office.

The HP ZBook Mobile Workstation powers the toughest jobs under the

toughest conditions.

HP ZBooks are engineered to optimize the way the processor, memory,

graphics, operating systems and application software components work

together — so you can work smarter.

• INTEL PROCESSOR TECHNOLOGY – Count on high-performance Intel processors — validated and tested by Intel and HP — to power performance and productivity.

• HIGH-PERFORMANCE STORAGE OPTIONS – Choose high-performance, high reliability storage to accommodate your demanding workflows — advanced security, scalability, and tiering features also available.

• LEADING-EDGE PROFESSIONAL GRAPHICS – Rely on high-quality graphics cards that have undergone extensive (100,000 hours!) testing to deliver the higher quality drivers that you can trust.

• HP PERFORMANCE ADVISOR – Get the most out of your ZBook with a wizard-driven interface that helps you configure, customize, and optimize your system for each new application and driver you install.

• HP REMOTE GRAPHICS SOFTWARE – Work from anywhere or any computer and collaborate locally or globally — and still access the high-performance data-intensive applications you count on.

• THUNDERBOLT – Take data anywhere with high-speed Thunderbolt ports to power your applications — and the option to daisy chain up to 6 Thunderbolt devices.

• HP DREAMCOLOR – Take color accuracy to the next level and achieve maximum impact with the HP DreamColor Display — and see what it looks like with one billion active colors.

HP ZBooks define reliability. Made for those who need to run their machine

24/7/365, HP goes through rigorous design, testing, and certification

processes to ensure that the ZBook delivers the highest application

performance and data integrity.

• BUSINESS-RUGGED DESIGN – Count on a business-rugged, military-grade design that’s been thoroughly tested to stand up to the rigors of users who are constantly on the move.

• INDEPENDENT SOFTWARE VENDOR (ISV) CERTIFICATION – Depend on HP and leading software and graphics vendors to test and certify that their applications and cards work flawlessly on HP ZBooks.

• HP TESTED, CUSTOMER APPROVED – Know that our customers put their workstations through the toughest trials—but not before our engineers have conducted some 115,000 hours of rigorous three-axis testing to ensure world-class component and workstation reliability.

• ENGINEERED BIOS – Helps hardware compatibility and increases workstation reliability by reducing power consumption through preset sleep states, adjustable fan speeds that maximize operating efficiency, and power management features.

MISSION-CRITICAL RELIABILITY FOR MISSION-CRITICAL WORKLOADS

In the final analysis, software certification counts for a lot in the

genre of mobile workstations and HP has worked with just about

every specialty software vendor of importance to insure that it can

get the job done. It doesn’t matter if you’re going to use it to edit

video, design and manufacture products or even explore for oil and

gas deposits, the ZBook 15 has the right stuff to get it done.” 2
