Greater density means:
• Smaller footprint
• More processing performance
• More RAM capacity
• Lower power consumption per unit
• Easier manageability
Dell’s blade server platform offers superior feature density over comparable rack servers, as can be
seen from Table 2 (darker blue shading indicates increased density).
