The HP ProLiant BL260c G5, part number 467956-B21, is a blade server specifically designed for high-efficiency data centre operations. It is powered by the Intel Xeon X3323 processor, which runs at a clock speed of 2.5 GHz. This makes the server well-suited for handling moderately intensive workloads, ensuring decent performance for a variety of tasks. The Xeon X3323 is a quad-core processor, enabling it to manage parallel processes and multitasking efficiently.
This server is part of the ProLiant BL260c G5 series, ensuring it operates within HP's c-class blade enclosure, optimising utilisation of data centre space and minimising power consumption. Another critical benefit is that the server integrates seamlessly into environments designed for HP blade products, allowing for reduced infrastructure complexity.
While it doesn’t come with pre-installed memory or storage, the BL260c G5 provides flexibility for administrators to choose their preferred configurations, supporting a range of storage and memory upgrade options. It is highly customisable depending on specific enterprise needs and is compatible with multiple OS environments, including Linux and Windows Server editions. Because it is specifically designed for blade systems, it does not include its own power supply; this is shared with the HP blade enclosure to further reduce individual footprint and energy costs.
The HP ProLiant BL260c G5 also features integrated network capabilities, which typically include dual-network interface controllers (NICs) for robust connectivity. Additionally, the blade’s management features allow for remote monitoring and adjustments, making it convenient to maintain across distributed environments or multiple data centres.
