Dual-processor blade for compute-dense racks

The HPE BL460c G9 fits a standard c-Class enclosure and delivers two Xeon E5-2643 v4 CPUs at 3.4 GHz with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Two 1.8 TB SAS drives connect through a P244br controller with 1 GB FBWC, and a 10 Gb two-port 562T adapter handles network traffic. Integrated iLO Advanced provides full remote management.

Virtualisation hosts needing maximum cores per slot

This blade suits clusters that run many virtual machines on a single half-height module and can use the installed 256 GB memory limit. Buyers who need more than two drives, additional PCIe cards or GPU acceleration should look at full-height or GPU-enabled blades instead.

256 GB DDR4 memory ceiling

The board reaches its maximum supported capacity at 256 GB, so no further DIMMs can be added. Any workload that requires more memory per node must move to a different server platform.

Questions about this item

What enclosure slot width and depth does the BL460c G9 blade require?

The half-height blade occupies a single 22 x 22 in slot in a compatible c-Class enclosure.

How is the P244br controller with 1 GB FBWC installed in the blade, and what step is often missed?

The controller seats in the dedicated mezzanine slot; the super-capacitor pack must be clipped to the chassis bracket or the write cache will not enable.

When will the 1.8 TB SAS drives and DDR4 ECC memory need replacement?

Drives are enterprise SAS units rated for 24/7 operation; replace on SMART pre-fail alerts. DDR4 ECC DIMMs last the server life unless a correctable-error threshold is crossed.
