HPE 863447-B21 ProLiant BL460c Gen10 Blade Server
Overview
The HPE 863447-B21 is a high-density blade server designed for deployment in the HPE BladeSystem c7000 enclosure or HPE Synergy frames, built around the ProLiant BL460c Gen10 design. It typically ships configured with dual Intel Xeon Gold 6140 processors (2.3 GHz, 18-cores each) and 128 GB DDR4 memory (4 × 32 GB) in its base configurationIts 2-SFF (2.5″ small form factor) hot-plug drive bays support NVMe/SAS/SATA options and dual 20-GbE FlexibleLOM networking gives it serious I/O horsepower for virtualisation hosts, high-density compute clusters or blade-based enterprise consolidation.In a real‐world scenario you’d use this blade in a shared-infrastructure chassis, attach to high-speed interconnect fabrics and benefit from centralized power, cooling and management. It’s well-suited where you need dual-socket performance in a blade form-factor, and want to leverage HPE’s ProLiant management (iLO 5, OneView) across many nodes.
Key Features
-
Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6140 (18-core, 2.3 GHz) processors in a 2-socket blade deliver strong compute density in a shared chassis.
-
Dual 20 GbE FlexibleLOM network ports enable high-throughput connectivity, ideal for hyper-converged or clustered environments.
-
Supports up to ~1.5 TB DDR4 memory via 16 DIMM slots (base 128 GB typical), giving plenty of headroom for VM hosts.
-
Two hot-swappable 2.5″ SFF drive bays allow flexible storage options (NVMe/SAS/SATA) directly in blade; good for high-I/O or boot/storage workloads.
-
Integrates HPE iLO 5 management engine and meshes with HPE OneView/fabric administration — helps with fleet wide lifecycle and remote operation.
