The HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen9 Server Blade is engineered to deliver high performance, scalability, and efficiency for modern converged data centers. Optimized for diverse workloads, it provides right-sized storage and enhanced TCO while simplifying management through HPE OneView, enabling faster IT service delivery and improved business performance.
Performance and Efficiency
Powered by Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v3 and v4 processors, the BL460c Gen9 delivers up to 21% higher performance. HPE DDR4 SmartMemory at 2400 MT/s supports up to 2TB with 33% higher throughput than competitors and 35% lower power consumption. NVMe SSD options accelerate high-end workloads with up to 7x better random and 4.5x sequential performance. Persistent memory improves transaction speeds for analytics and data management.
Flexibility and Versatility
The server blade supports multiple embedded storage controllers (HPE Smart Array P244br, H244br, or Dynamic Smart Array B140i) and NVMe pass-through cards, offering flexible storage configurations for diverse workloads. Optional USB 3.0, dual micro-SD, and M.2 support enhance boot options. Both UEFI and Legacy BIOS modes provide deployment versatility.
Simplified Management
HPE OneView centralizes management, offering a unified view of hardware, software, firmware, and drivers. Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) enhances server lifecycle management, including iLO Federation for managing groups of servers remotely, rapid discovery, group configuration, health monitoring, and license management.
