HP ProLiant BL460c G6 blade server

This half-height blade server delivers a quad-core Intel Xeon E5530 running at 2.40 GHz with 6 GB of DDR memory installed. It supports up to two processors and a maximum memory capacity of 96 GB for demanding data-centre workloads.

Suited for virtualisation hosts needing dense

Organisations that require high memory density and dual-processor headroom in a compact blade form factor will benefit. Buyers who need GPU acceleration beyond the integrated RN50 graphics with 32 MB video memory should look at alternatives.

Sustained-load behaviour

The platform supports a second Xeon processor to scale throughput under continuous multi-threaded demand. SAS drive bays with RAID 1 provide storage redundancy during extended operations, while the 10 GbE adapter maintains network bandwidth.

Questions about this item

What enclosure is required for this HP BL460c G6 blade server to operate?

It must be installed in a compatible HP blade enclosure that supplies power, cooling and interconnects for the half-height form factor.

Can the single 2.40 GHz Xeon E5530 processor remain while a second CPU is added later?

Yes, the board supports two processors and one is already installed, so a matching second Xeon can be added without removing the first.

How can I confirm the integrated RN50 graphics controller is active after the blade is seated?

During POST the firmware will report the ATI RN50 with 32 MB video memory, and the management console will list the graphics device as present.
