It is without question, that the new BL260c server blade offers the lowest cost and the best performance per watt in the industry. It offers a 64% better performance/watt and costs 20% less than any other 2P server blade in the market. Also, the BL260c consumes 33% less power with full features. It is: The world's most affordable, power efficient 2P server blade. Read more about c-Class setting record breaking numbers.
Like all HP BladeSystem components, the new HP BL260c offers greater energy efficiency and features than IBM's HS21 server. The two processor, multi-core BL260c combines energy efficient compute power, high density with sufficient memory and I/O for the full range of small, mid market or remote site applications.
This new balanced architecture supports Intel's newest Xeon® 5400 and 5200 series processors. And as a bonus, the BL260c also offers support for Intel's affordable uP processors.
