# About server hardware types

A server hardware type defines the physical configuration for server hardware and defines the settings that are available to server profiles to be assigned to that type of server hardware. For example, the server hardware type for the HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen8 Server Blade includes a complete list of BIOS settings and the defaults for that model.

The appliance creates server hardware types according to the server hardware it detects. The server hardware type is used when you create a server profile to show which settings are available.
