Do more now with IBM BladeCenter HS23 and HS23E servers

These latest blade servers can help you gain insight and efficiency so you can build a dynamic infrastructure—one with flexibility, energy efficiency and density. Both blade servers are supported on all current and previous IBM® BladeCenter® chassis, and like every BladeCenter system, they support superior reliability features and innovative management tools that help your critical applications to stay up and running longer.

BladeCenter HS23

The BladeCenter HS23 is optimised for performance and highly scalable I/O. The combination of integrated 10 GbE Virtual Fabric, 16 memory slots, and the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family make the HS23 blade server ideal for your virtualisation and cloud computing workloads.

The BladeCenter HS23 features:

• Integrated 10 GbE Virtual Fabric for enhancing virtual environments
• Support for up to 256 GB for more or larger VMs per server
• Choice of hot-swap drives so you can match your specific capacity, performance, cost and reliability needs
• Scalable memory for computing-intensive enterprise applications and virtualised environments
• The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family that supports up to 8-cores for higher processing performance over prior generation quad- and dual-core systems processors

BladeCenter HS23E

Get performance for value with the BladeCenter HS23E blade server. Optimised for energy efficiency and flexibility, the HS23E supports low-voltage processor and memory options for minimising energy usage, and two ports of integrated 1 GbE (scalable to 10 GbE) for networking scalability.

The BladeCenter HS23E features:

• Choice of hot-swap drives and hardware or software RAID so you can match your specific capacity, performance, cost and reliability needs
• Low-voltage processor and memory options to minimise energy usage without sacrificing performance
• Scalable memory for computing-intensive enterprise applications and virtualised environments
• The Intel Xeon processor E5-2400 product family that supports up to 8-cores for higher processing performance over prior generation single- and dual-core systems processors
