Dell Blade is a trusted virtualization solution for hosting companies. I did some benchmark tests on our Blade server (Dell PowerEdge M1000E). I used two different pyhsical servers, Dell PowerEdge M600 and Dell PowerEdge M610. Also I used two virtual machines to compare results. Server configurations:

DELL M600:
OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
CPU: Intel Xeon L5430 @ 2.66GHz
Ram: 32766 MB RAM
Disk: 136GB HDD

DELL M600 VM:
OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
VM CPU: Intel Xeon L5430 @ 2.66GHz
VM Ram: 4095 MB RAM
VM Disk: 40 GB, DELL EqualLogic

DELL M610:
OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
CPU: Intel Xeon E5530 @ 2.40GHz
Ram: 49142 MB RAM
Disk: 136GB HDD

DELL M610 VM:
OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
VM CPU: Intel Xeon E5530 @ 2.40GHz
VM Ram: 4095 MB RAM
VM Disk: 40 GB, Dell EqualLogic

Results:

I used Passmark PerformanceTest 7.0 for all benchmark tests. (http://www.passmark.com)
