Workhorse 2-socket single- or dual-core Intel Xeon blade server It is extremely important to include all infrastructure costs when comparing a BladeCenter solution to a competitor’s offering, not just the cost of the chassis and the blades. The high density and level of integration of the BladeCenter chassis greatly reduces the cost of the overall solution. For example, because up to six chassis will fit in a rack, this means that up to 84 blade servers can be installed. (Competitive bl
