Blade server for AMD Opteron workloads

The IBM eServer BladeCenter LS20 is a single-processor blade built around an AMD Opteron CPU. It arrives with 1GB of memory installed and supports a maximum of 16GB, making it suitable for entry-level virtualization or legacy application hosting within a BladeCenter chassis.

Fits density-focused racks; not for GPU-heavy tasks

This blade suits administrators who need compute density in an existing BladeCenter enclosure and can work within the 16GB memory ceiling. Buyers who want more storage, additional processor sockets, or modern discrete graphics should look at something else.

Confirm chassis slot and memory type before ordering

Verify that your BladeCenter chassis has a free slot compatible with the LS20 form factor and that the memory modules you plan to add match the blade's supported DDR specification. Also check that the integrated ATI Mobility Radeon 7000M graphics meet your display requirements.

Questions about this item

What chassis is required to install the LS20 blade server?

The LS20 blade installs in an IBM BladeCenter chassis that provides power, cooling and management modules for the blade.

Can the Mobility Radeon 7000M graphics controller drive a display in a legacy rack environment?

The integrated ATI Mobility Radeon 7000M controller provides basic 2D video output for local console or KVM attachment in a rack.

How do I verify the 16 GB memory limit is recognised after adding DIMMs?

During POST the system BIOS reports total installed memory; the management module also displays the detected capacity for the blade.
