HPE BL460c Gen10 dual-socket blade

This HPE BL460c Gen10 blade server is a dense compute node designed for virtualization clusters and database workloads. Two Xeon Gold 5215 processors deliver 20 cores running at 2.5 GHz with 13.75 MB cache each. Installed DDR4 memory totals 32 GB and can expand to 128 GB. A Smart Array P204i-b SR controller manages the two 1.8 TB SAS drives.

Suited for scale-out virtualization hosts

Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than two drive bays should look elsewhere. The integrated graphics and dual-drive limit rule out heavy rendering or local storage-intensive applications. FlexFabric 20 Gb networking and iLO Advanced remote management fit standard rack environments.

Dual 1.8 TB SAS drives set capacity

The two installed 1.8 TB SAS hard drives define the local storage available before any external array is added. This capacity decides whether the blade can hold the working set or must boot from SAN.

Questions about this item

How is this BL460c Gen10 blade installed into its enclosure and which step is often missed?

Slide the blade into an empty bay until the connector seats firmly; the step often missed is engaging the release lever fully so the server locks to the mid-plane.

What maintenance or replacement will the two 1.8TB SAS drives and the Smart Array P204i-b SR controller need later?

The SAS drives are mechanical and will eventually require replacement; the controller cache uses a capacitor-backed module that should be checked during firmware updates.

What limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 5215 processors run sustained workloads on this blade?

The 32GB DDR4 memory ceiling is reached before the 128GB maximum, so heavy workloads hit capacity limits first.
