Very interesting.... We will see the price and how they compare for example against R710; C2100 seems a R710 / R510 Mix

Good luck on the Fortuna. We were told they were designed for "many hundreds" of nodes, not the dozens we were initially looking at. Think 6 figures to get started...at least that's the way it was when they first came out.

Upon contacting our Dell rep for a quote on the C6100 it was somewhere around $30,000 list price - fully populated with 4x slides (servers), 2x E5520 Proc + 16GB RAM and 300GB 15K SAS HDD.
This is still high even after factoring our Corporate discount. Hopefully, the price will come down after a few months.

The C1100 reminds me of rackable's. It can't be too difficult to come up with a new brand name.

It reminds me of the older Intel Xeon servers.

Those do indeed look interesting. I would love to get some more specs on those. Really curious about the power requirements.

From the information provided to us, the C6100 with 4 sledges fully populated takes about 12+ amps of power - they are power hungry which is unfortunate.

That's probably what the power supply is rated, which usually is higher than the actual power consumption.

so does each node have its own memory slots or do all four nodes share a common bank of memory?
