The L5420 model is also known for its lower power consumption, making it a suitable option for organisations aiming to achieve energy efficiency without compromising on performance.
This server model is part of the ProLiant series, known for its compatibility with HP's BladeSystem infrastructure. The BL260c G5 is designed to fit into an HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure, enabling businesses to manage data centre resources efficiently. Despite its space-saving design, the blade does not compromise on key specifications.
The HP ProLiant BL260c G5 supports up to 16GB of DDR2 memory, allowing for decent levels of multitasking and handling of various workloads. However, note that the part number 464946R-B21 does not include pre-installed memory, storage, or operating system.
