HPE BL460c G10 Blade Server 2x Xeon 5118 2.3 GHz 64GB DDR4 2x 300GB SAS

Blade server for virtualisation workloads

The HPE BL460c G10 is a half-height blade fitted with two Xeon 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets administrators who need dense compute for virtual machines or container clusters within an existing c-Class enclosure. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than two internal drives should look elsewhere.

Check enclosure power and cooling capacity

Verify that your c-Class chassis has sufficient power-supply bays and fan modules to support the additional thermal load of dual CPUs and 10 K SAS spindles. Confirm the Smart Array P204i-b SR Gen10 controller firmware matches the enclosure’s management module to avoid RAID initialisation issues. Ensure the FlexFabric 20 Gb 2-port 650FLB adapter is compatible with your uplink modules and that iLO Advanced licensing is available for remote management.

Two 300 GB SAS drives and iLO Advanced included

The paired 2.5-inch 10 K SAS drives provide a hardware RAID foundation for the operating system or scratch space without extra cabling. Integrated Lights-Out Advanced enables full remote console, virtual media and power control from day one, reducing the need for physical KVM access. The configuration ships with BIOS and firmware pre-updated, so the blade can join the enclosure and begin provisioning immediately.
