Blade server for dense compute
The HPE BL460c Gen10 fits into a c-Class enclosure and delivers two Xeon Gold 5220S processors running at 2.7 GHz with eighteen cores each. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory and two 1.8 TB SAS hard drives are installed. The Smart Array P204i-b SR controller manages storage while a FlexFabric 20 Gb two-port adapter handles networking. Integrated iLO Advanced provides remote management.
Sustained load behaviour
Dual processors share a 24.75 MB cache and can scale memory to 128 GB across available slots. The blade form factor relies on the enclosure’s shared cooling, so thermal headroom depends on the overall chassis configuration and workload density. The SAS drives and integrated graphics are suited to general-purpose virtualization and database tasks rather than high-throughput GPU compute.
Installation notes
The unit mounts vertically in a supported HPE c-Class enclosure; no rail kit is included unless requested separately. Firmware and BIOS are updated to the latest stable release before shipment and a full burn-in test is completed. Buyers who need more than two internal drives or a different drive interface must choose another platform because the blade chassis limits the bay count to two 2.5-inch devices.

Questions about this item
How much heat do the two Xeon Gold 5220S CPUs add to the enclosure when the blade runs continuously?
Each Xeon Gold 5220S is an 18-core processor rated at 2.7 GHz; the shared enclosure handles cooling for both CPUs and the 32 GB DDR4 memory.
What enclosure and interconnects must already be in place for this BL460c Gen10 blade to operate?
The blade requires a compatible HPE c-Class enclosure with power, cooling and FlexFabric 20 Gb 2-port 650FLB networking modules installed.
Will the Smart Array P204i-b SR controller recognise older SAS drives I keep from earlier ProLiant blades?
The controller supports SAS HDDs such as the installed 1.8 TB 2.5" drives; it will recognise any SAS drive the enclosure backplane accepts.
