HP DL380 G7

so i bought a DL 380 with the intentions of putting it in my rosewill 4U "server" case https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00N9CXGSO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . Its not looking so good so far. Has anyone had any luck moving this board to a new case?. . . My reasoning is, i have 11 drives in my current server and wanted to upgrade/update my current hardware to the DL-380 hardware. Any productive input is appreciated.

Why do you want dl380 g7 hardware? Id just get atx hardware, and put it in the current case. Can you still retun the hp server?
 

Those servers aren't standard, and are no made to be used in other cases.

You bought a server that has propriety hardware and you want to fit in a standard server chassis? It won't fit, and if it did, the cabling will be a mess because the server is a 2U not a 4U.
