Blade server for virtualisation density
The HPE BL460c G10 blade server fits two Xeon Gold 6132 processors at 2.6 GHz with 14 cores each and 32 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It is built for data-centre racks that need high compute density in a half-height form factor. Buyers who need more than 128 GB of memory or more than two 2.5-inch drive bays should look at larger chassis options.
Sustained multi-threaded throughput
Dual 14-core CPUs deliver 28 threads per blade with 19.25 MB cache per processor, keeping throughput steady during long compile jobs, database scans or hypervisor workloads. The Smart Array P204i-b SR controller manages the two 300 GB 10K SAS drives in hardware RAID without bottlenecks. The FlexFabric 650FLB adapter provides 20 Gb connectivity for cluster traffic.
Thermals and power in the enclosure
Blade architecture moves cooling to the shared enclosure fans so the module itself has no local fan noise and draws power through the mid-plane. Integrated Lights-Out Advanced gives remote power control and thermal monitoring without a local console. Operators must provision enough enclosure power modules and cooling capacity for the full blade count.

Questions about this item
How loud and hot does the BL460c G10 get when both Xeon Gold 6132 processors run at 2.6 GHz all day?
The blade relies on the enclosure's shared cooling; with two 14-core CPUs at 2.6 GHz it draws significant power, so expect noticeable fan noise and heat that the chassis fans must handle continuously.
What enclosure and interconnects must I already own for this blade to operate?
You need an HPE c-Class enclosure with power, cooling and a compatible interconnect module for the FlexFabric 20 GB 2-port 650FLB adapter installed in the blade.
Will the Smart Array P204i-b SR controller recognise my older 2.5-inch SAS drives?
Yes, the P204i-b SR Gen10 controller supports SAS 2.5-inch drives, so existing 10K SAS disks such as the 300 GB units already installed will be detected and can be configured in RAID.
