Product Description

The HP 464943-B21 specifies a configuration for the HP ProLiant BL260c G5 server blade. This blade server is designed for deployment within an HP BladeSystem enclosure, offering a dense and efficient computing solution for data centers. This particular configuration includes a single Intel Xeon E5420 processor, which is a quad-core CPU operating at a frequency of 2.5GHz. The inclusion of one processor makes it a cost-effective option for environments that require consolidation and virtualization, where multiple virtual machines can be run on a single physical server. The server is equipped with 2GB of DDR2 SDRAM. DDR2 memory is an older generation of RAM, and 2GB is a relatively small amount for modern server workloads, especially those involving virtualization or large databases. However, the BL260c G5 platform typically supports memory upgrades, allowing for expansion to meet the demands of more intensive applications. The ECC (Error-Correcting Code) capability of the DDR2 SDRAM ensures data integrity, which is crucial for server stability and reliability. The ProLiant BL260c G5 is built for performance and efficiency within the blade infrastructure. Its design allows for high density, meaning more compute power can be packed into a smaller physical footprint compared to traditional rack servers. This configuration is well-suited for businesses looking to consolidate servers, reduce power consumption, and simplify management through the centralized BladeSystem enclosure, while providing adequate resources for specific application workloads.
