Blade server for dense virtualisation

The HPE BL460c G9 fits two Xeon E5-2620 v4 processors running at 2.1 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It is aimed at environments that need many compute threads in a single enclosure slot. Buyers who need more than two sockets or a newer instruction set should look elsewhere.

SATA storage with RAID headroom

Two 1 TB SATA drives connect through the Smart Array P244br controller with 1 GB flash-backed write cache. The 7.2 K rpm disks limit random IOPS, so sustained database workloads will saturate the media before the controller. The blade accepts only two 2.5 inch drives, so capacity cannot grow internally.

Memory and compute ceiling

All 256 GB of DDR4 slots are populated, leaving no room for expansion. The dual eight-core CPUs deliver sixteen threads total, which handles moderate consolidation but runs out on heavily threaded render farms or large in-memory analytics. Remote management is provided by integrated iLO Advanced.

Questions about this item

Which memory capacity should I choose for the HPE BL460c G9 if the system already ships with 256GB DDR4?

The server arrives with 256GB DDR4 ECC Registered installed, which matches the maximum supported capacity, so no additional memory can be added.

What does the 2.1 GHz Xeon E5-2620 v4 clock speed mean for actual workloads in this blade?

Each of the two Xeon E5-2620 v4 processors runs at 2.1 GHz base frequency, providing dual-socket performance for virtualisation, database and general compute tasks.

What storage interface does the P244br controller use and what speed does it cap at for the installed drives?

The SMART ARRAY P244br controller connects the two 1TB SATA 7.2K drives over a SATA interface, limiting each drive to the SATA 6 Gb/s link speed.
