Cache Memory 1 MB Level 2 cache memory per core (8200 series)
512 KB Level 2 cache memory per core, 2 MB Level 3 cache (8300 series)

Chipset nVidia CK8-04, IO-04

Memory TypePC2-5300 DDR2 Registered DIMMs at 667 MHz
Standard4 GB (4 x 1 GB)
Maximum64 GB (16 x 4 GB)
NOTE: Memory must be installed in pairs.
NOTE: DIMMs must be installed in decreasing capacity with the largest DIMMs installed in the banks furthest away from each processor.

Network Controller Four (4) embedded network adapter ports, plus one (1) additional management port consisting of:

One (1) embedded NC326i Dual Port Gigabit Server Adapter

Two (2) embedded NC373i Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapters

One (1) embedded 10/100 network adapter dedicated to iLO 2 Management

NOTE: The Gigabit Ethernet adapters transmit from the server only at 2000 Mbps, full duplex per port. However, within a Linux environment, the speed can be reduced or "throttled" using a feature available within the Linux operating system; see the white paper at: https://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-5513ENW.pdf for more information.

Once the adapter signal reaches the interconnect within the blade enclosure and communicates outside the blade enclosure to the LAN, the blade interconnect uplink types and settings determine the cable media, speed, duplex mode, and auto negotiation mode.


Multifunction Networking

The embedded multifunction NC373i combines standard Gigabit Ethernet networking, TCP/IP offload engine (TOE) acceleration, iSCSI boot, and optional accelerates iSCSI into a single adapter.

  • TOE moves the processing of data in the TCP protocol stack from the server CPU to the network card, freeing CPU cycles for other activities. With TOE, network communications are improved, and server efficiency is increased. The NC373i offers TOE for Microsoft® Windows environments.
  • The iSCSI network boot (iSCSI boot) allows the BL685c to boot from a remote operating system (OS) image located on a storage area network (SAN) within a Microsoft Windows and Linux environment. The BL685c uses an iSCSI firmware image (iSCSI boot option ROM) making the remote disk drive appear as a local, bootable C: drive. The BL685c is configured to connect to and boot from the iSCSI target disk on the network and download the OS image from the iSCSI target disk. The iSCSI boot option ROM is supplied by HP at no cost. Additionally, cost and mezzanine slot usage of an add-in iSCSI HBA card is not required. Additionally, the HP iSCSI boot solution includes scripts to significantly simplify the installation process.

Two option kits

Emulex LPe1105-HP 4Gb FC HBA for HP c-Class BladeSystem (403621-B21 403621-B21)

  • Based on the same field-proven ASIC, firmware, and driver technology as Emulex's renowned LPe1150 HBA, the Emulex LPe1105-HP is fully driver compatible with all Emulex HBAs

QLogic QMH2462 4Gb FC HBA for HP c-Class BladeSystem (403619-B21 403619-B21)

  • Uses common drivers which means that customers can standardize on one QLogic driver whether they are using the QMH2462 or other 4Gb and 2Gb HBAs powered by QLogic

Emulex and QLogic Fibre Channel HBAs feature

  • Optimal performance utilizing PCI Express
  • 4/2/1Gb/s auto negotiating speeds
  • Dual-ports for redundant path connections
  • Up to two FC HBAs per server blade providing redundant FC HBA support
  • Optimized for HP StorageWorks and supported by third party SAN vendors

DIMM installation guidelines:

  1. All DIMMs must be PC2-5300 Registered DDR2 DIMMs (667 MHz).
  2. Both DIMM slots in a memory bank must be populated.
  3. Banks must be populated in sequential alphabetic order, starting with bank A.
  4. Both DIMMs in a memory bank must be identical. Install identical DIMMs as pairs only, starting with DIMM socket 1, bank A.
  5. Multiple advanced memory protection (AMP) modes are supported, based on DIMM population and RBSU selection. The server blade defaults to Advanced ECC.
  6. DIMMs must be installed in decreasing capacity with the largest DIMMs installed in the banks furthest away from each processor.
  7. DIMM banks are active only when the corresponding processor socket is populated.
