Dual 16-core Xeon blade for dense compute
The HPE BL460c G9 fits two Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors running at 2.1 GHz, each with 16 cores and 40 MB cache. 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory fills the maximum supported capacity. This configuration targets workloads that need high core counts and large memory footprints inside a standard blade enclosure.
P244br controller with flash-backed cache
The integrated SMART ARRAY P244br provides 1 GB of flash-backed write cache and manages the two installed 300 GB 10K SAS drives. This RAID controller enables hardware RAID levels for redundancy or performance without consuming a mezzanine slot. The 10 Gb dual-port 562T adapter and iLO Advanced remote management are also factory-fitted.
Blade form factor limits expansion
As a half-height blade the server occupies a single enclosure bay and supports only two 2.5-inch drives internally. Additional storage, GPU or specialised networking requires enclosure-level shared infrastructure or external arrays. Buyers who need more local drive bays or add-in cards must choose a rack-mount platform instead.

Questions about this item
What drive maintenance will the two 300 GB SAS HDDs need later?
The installed 10K SAS drives are mechanical; plan to replace them when SMART alerts appear or after the rated workload hours for the 2.5" form factor.
Which limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2683 v4 CPUs run at 2.1 GHz continuously?
Thermal headroom inside the blade slot typically caps sustained turbo before the 16-core processors hit power limits.
How much power does the fully populated blade draw under all-day load?
With dual 16-core CPUs, 256 GB DDR4, dual 300 GB SAS drives and the 10 Gb 2-port adapter, expect peak draw near the enclosure's 10 Gb blade budget.
