Dell is offering two types of blades, the M600 and M605, and according to Albert Esser, VP of power and cooling infrastructure for Dell, because of the company’s new energy-efficient power supplies and power-management software, the Dell blade servers use up to 19 percent less power than the similarly configured HP BladeSystem c-Class blade servers and get up to 25 percent better performance per Watt.
Esser said the Dell models use 12 percent less energy than the IBM BladeCenter H models and get up to 28 percent better performance per Watt.
