What are two benefits of blade servers as compared to rack servers? (Choose two.)

Server performance is primarily determined by components like CPU, RAM, and storage, not the physical form factor, so blade servers do not inherently offer higher performance than comparable rack servers.

Blade servers consolidate power, cooling, and networking components within a shared chassis, which significantly reduces the number of individual power, network, and storage cables required per server blade.

Provisioning blade servers requires configuring the shared chassis infrastructure and individual blades, which can be more complex than provisioning a single, self-contained rack server.

Blade servers are designed for high density and often have fewer internal drive bays than larger rack servers, which typically offer more disk space for internal storage.

While the initial cost of a fully populated blade chassis can be high, the cost per individual server blade, once amortized over the shared chassis infrastructure, is often lower than the equivalent cost of a standalone rack server.
