Dual Xeon Gold 6132 blade server
The HPE BL460c G10 is a dual-socket blade server built for virtualised workloads and dense compute clusters. Two 14-core Xeon Gold 6132 processors at 2.6 GHz deliver 28 cores and 19.25 MB cache per chip. Forty-eight gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory support the operating system and guest instances out of the box.
SAS storage and 20 Gb networking limits
Internal capacity tops out at two 2.5-inch drives on the Smart Array P204i-b SR controller, so only SAS hard drives or SSDs can be installed directly. The FlexFabric 650FLB adapter provides two 20 Gb ports, capping east-west traffic at that bandwidth without additional fabric modules. Maximum system memory is 128 GB, restricting larger in-memory datasets unless DIMMs are added.
Capacity headroom for typical workloads
The installed 300 GB 10K SAS pair handles boot, hypervisor and modest application volumes with hardware RAID 1 redundancy. Forty-eight gigabytes of RAM comfortably runs a handful of virtual machines or container hosts, while the 128 GB ceiling leaves room for growth before a memory upgrade becomes necessary. Compute scales to the full 28 cores without further processor changes.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 48 GB DDR4 configuration or upgrade toward the 128 GB maximum?
The server ships with 48 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed; the board supports up to 128 GB total, so choose 48 GB for typical virtualization workloads and add modules later if your applications demand more capacity.
What does the 2.6 GHz Xeon Gold 6132 speed deliver in a live blade?
Each of the two Gold 6132 CPUs runs at 2.6 GHz with 14 cores and 19.25 MB cache, providing 28 threads total for multi-threaded applications such as database or virtualization hosts.
How does the SAS interface and Smart Array P204i-b SR controller limit drive performance?
The two 300 GB 10K SAS drives connect through the Smart Array P204i-b SR controller, which caps throughput at the SAS 12 Gb/s lane speed and RAID overhead, so sustained reads top out near the drive’s native 10K RPM rate.
