The IBM 7870C4U  offers flexible options to support a broad range of workloads, including virtualization and enterprise applications. Along with intuitive UEFI-based tools, the 7870C4U can be customized and deployed quickly while best-in-class reliability features help keep you up and running. Mix and match the 7870C4U with the industry's most diverse set of chassis and blades and that go beyond x86. The IBM HS22 provides outstanding performance with support for the latest Intel Xeon processors, high-speed I/O, and support for high memory capacity and fast memory throughput. The 7870C4U can run applications up to twice as fast compared to previous generation blades. In fact, you can run many applications faster than even competitor four-socket blades.  The HS22 is fully supported in the BladeCenter E when the BladeCenter E chassis has

The 2320 W power supplies and an advanced management module installed.    When the HS22s are to be installed in a BladeCenter E with 2000 W power supplies, there are restrictions regarding the number of HS22 blades that can be installed and in which bays, as listed in Table 4. To remove this restriction, upgrade the power supplies to 2320 W power supplies. The HS22 is not supported in a BladeCenter E chassis with less than 2000 W power supplies.  The 7870C4U  always requires an advanced management module to be installed regardless of the power supplies used.  The HS22 type 7870 features the powerful Xeon 5500 series processor. With the Xeon 5500 series processors, Intel has moved the memory controller into the processor and no longer has to rely on a front-side bus architecture to access memory. The memory is now directly connected to the processor.  The HS22 has six DIMM sockets per processor, supporting up to 96 GB of memory when using 8 GB DIMM modules and with both processors installed. The HS22 uses registered Double Data Rate-3 (DDR-3) VLP (very-low-profile) DIMMs and provides ECC and advanced Chipkill memory protection.
