s HPE ProLiant BL660c Gen9 Server Blade
Advanced ECC uses single device data correction (SDDC) to detect and correct single and all multi-bit
error that occurs within a single DRAM chip. Both x4 and x8 SDDC are supported (x8 requires lockstep mode).
Memory online spare mode (also known as rank spare mode) detects a rank that is degrading and
switches operation to the spare rank.
Memory demand and patrol scrubbing to prevent accumulation of correctable errors and reducing the
likelihood of unplanned downtime.
Failed DIMM isolation improves the service time thus improving the overall system availability.
Address parity protection available on RDIMMs and LRDIMMs detects address bit errors to improve
service time and overall system availability.
Mezzanine options and I/O
Support for two (2) FlexibleLOMs, providing four (4) (i.e. redundant) Ethernet ports
Multiple mezzanine I/O expansion slots that support a wide variety of mezzanine cards each
supporting multiple data paths routed to redundant interconnect modules.
Network Adapter Teaming (bonding) provides network fault tolerance, transmit load balancing, and
switch-assisted load balancing.
Storage
Four (4) Small Form Factor hot-plug SAS/SATA HDD or SSD drive bays.
Choice of the HPE Smart Array P246br Controller with 1GB FBWC/HPE or the HPE B140i (chipset
SATA). RAID 0 and 1 support for both storage controller offerings.,
Optional dual-port Fibre Channel mezzanine card(s) for redundant SAN connections.
Processor/Chipset
Processor internal sensors & thermal control protection against over-temperature conditions.
Cache parity/ECC protects cache data from accidental data corruption.
Machine Check Architecture (MCA) detects and captures hardware errors such as system bus,
memory ECC, parity, and cache, and improves service time.
Intel® QPI Protocol Protection allows detection of data errors using a checksum of 8-bits.
Core Disable for FRB (fault resilient boot) allows a system to power-on despite a failing core-pair. It
uses BIST (built-in self test) results to detect a failure and disables the target core-pair upon subsequent boot.
Server Blade Enclosure Infrastructure
Pooled power for true N+N power redundancy through up to six (6) hot-plug, high-efficiency,
common slot enclosure-based power supplies (configuration dependent).
Up to ten (10) enclosure-based hot-plug HPE Active Cool fans that scale to meet future demands,
optimize airflow, reduce power draw, and improve acoustic performance.
Dual grid power providing redundant rack enclosure power feeds to the server blade enclosure.
HPE Dynamic Power Saver Mode monitors the total enclosure power consumption in real time and
automatically adjusts with change in demand for improved efficiency and reliability. HPE Dynamic Power Capping safely limits power usage without impacting performance by capping peak usage instead of average power usage, removes risk to electrical infrastructure with a fast-acting, hardware­based capping algorithm, and reclaims more power by dynamically controlling power limits based on workload demand.
Up to eight interconnect modules per server blade enclosure providing four simultaneous redundant
fabrics for FlexFabric, Virtual Connect Ethernet, Fibre Channel, InfiniBand, Pass Thru Ethernet, etc.
Enclosure crosslinks between adjacent enclosures to provide interconnect module-to-module
connections or as Virtual Connect module stacking links.
Optional enclosure redundant Onboard Administrator system management module.

2TB of memory (32 DIMM slots x 64GB per DIMM).
:
A minimum of one DIMM is required per processor.
Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed.
If only two processors are installed in a four processor system, only half of the DIMM slots are available.
DIMM sizes can be mixed in channel. To maximize performance, it is recommended to balance the total memory capacity
between all installed processors and to load the channels similarly whenever possible.
LRDIMM and RDIMMs are all distinct memory technologies and cannot be mixed within a server. The majority of ProLiant
Gen9 servers support RDIMM and LRDIMM.
DIMMs of different speeds may be mixed in any order; the server will select a common optimal speed.
The maximum memory speed is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model.
The maximum memory capacity is a function of the memory type and number of installed processors.
HPE memory from previous generation servers is not compatible with the BL660c Gen9 Server Blade.
To realize the performance memory capabilities listed in this document, HPE SmartMemory is required. For additional
information, please see the HPE SmartMemory QuickSpecs at: https://www.hpe.com/h20195/v2/GetHTML.aspx?docname=c04111535
