Choosing a BladeSystem over traditional server and

storage alternatives is a choice to transform your

infrastructure into something more simple and useful to

your business.

Today, HP offers two versatile enclosures to match the

unique needs of large or small IT environments. Each

one repackages the moving parts of your infrastructure—

cables, power supplies and fans, networking, redun-

dancy and more—to give greater convenience. This

means a BladeSystem costs less to buy, plus it adds

useful features that save you time, hassles and energy

while making change easy.

The BladeSystem enclosure is the secret behind that

transformation.

By consolidating everything from the start, BladeSystem

enclosures tackle four big problems, before your infra-

structure grows out of control.

Each BladeSystem enclosure is easy to upgrade and

customize. Inside, you can mix and match almost any

combination of ProLiant, Integrity and StorageWorks

blades to run your choice of thousands of applications

and connect to your same networks, but with 94 per-

cent fewer cables. 1 You can share and swap the same

blades and network options between other BladeSystem

enclosures and manage it all with the same tools.

Cost: high cost to buy, even higher costs to run and

maintain

Time: low productivity, downtime and slow reaction

to new opportunities

Change: inflexible and hard-wired with complex

processes and multiple people needed to grow or

adapt

Energy: inefficient, power-hungry systems that create

rising electricity cost and stress the power and

cooling capacity of your site

How to pick the right enclosure for you

Choose the HP BladeSystem c3000 for smaller sites

without special power and cooling needs or with a

small staff. The c3000 is the right choice if:

You only need four to eight servers at a time

You add fewer than four servers, slowly over time

Your server room only supports low-line wall outlets,

110 volts for example

You require DC power (48 volts)

You need to connect to a UPS

Your server room has limited air conditioning

Why HP over other blade choices?

Our unique innovations solve your biggest challenges.

HP has the good stuff built in from the start. We

combined the best technology from across HP to make

BladeSystem not only easy to use, but also useful to

you. And you get the same useful, powerful innovations

regardless of whether you choose the c3000 or c7000

enclosure.

Thermal Logic technologies: Smart technology saves

you energy every second and lightens the load on

your air conditioners, saving 30 percent in power. 2

Virtual Connect architecture: Wire once, then add,

replace or recover blades on the fly, without impacting

networks and storage or creating extra steps.

Insight Control management: Simple, single package

provides all the tools to streamline operations and

increase administrator productivity up to tenfold.

NonStop midplane: The same million-dollar reliability

that helps run Wall Street is built-in to keep your

business up and running.

Onboard Administrator: Wizards get you up and

running fast, and are paired with useful tools to

simplify daily tasks, warn of potential issues and

assist you with repairs.

Choose the HP BladeSystem c7000 for larger

datacenters and dynamic, complex environments.

The c7000 is the right choice if:

You need more than eight servers at a time

Your environment is growing rapidly, with frequent

server purchases

You require AC redundancy

You require more than 1 TB of direct-attached

storage per server

No-compromise capability

Share the same components with other HP BladeSystem

enclosures to make it fast and easy to create, customize

and grow.

Run your same business applications with industry

standards to support your operating systems and

thousands of application choices.

Trust the same server and storage blades. ProLiant,

Integrity, StorageWorks and more can be mixed and

matched in a single box.

Connect to your same networks. Use the latest

Ethernet, Fibre Channel and InfiniBand standards

and trusted brands.

Get more blades with more capability. HP

BladeSystem enclosures get more—two to four times

more—features into each blade; plus HP offers two

more blades per enclosure than IBM and six more

than Dell. 3 That means less infrastructure to buy for

the same number of blades.
