• 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

• 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.
