Overview The popularity of blade servers is growing rapidly due to their advantages over traditional rack servers. IT managers are attracted to their denser physical design, lower cost, reduced power consumption, enhanced scalability, and easier maintenance. IT managers must carefully choose their IO hardware in order to maximize their blade server Return On Investment (ROI). Critical features to be considered include performance, virtualization support, power consumption, and Operating System (OS) support. Competing blade IO hardware is greatly differentiated along these critical features. As a technology pioneer, QLogic has been providing blade server IO solutions since 2002. This paper explains the design aspects that make QLogic products the best in the industry and enable maximum blade server ROI.
