    Yes, these are currently configured with 1TB Ram, and 4x E7-4870 procs, 80HT cores of computing madness. The boxes actually will hold 2TB of Ram, I have 1 of those as well.

    We actually use the HUS as NAS for file data retrieved through our web apps, we use our SAN strictly for DB's, we chose IBM v7000 with tiered SSD.

    Are you going to fully populate the UCS chassis?, if so, what weight is the floor rated for?

    Dude, it's just a forum where we post cool datacenter stuff, it's too bad you are so sensitive and think it's a contest.

    Those are also not true, the "IT dept." may be "starving for funding", while the "Marketing and Sales" teams are given exactly what they need.

    We had to go with the C-Series because they accommodate 2TB of Ram, the current B440 M2 blade only supports 1TB. There is a B440 M3 slated for Q3/Q4 release that will support 2TB of Ram but we couldn't wait that long. Tha Ram requirement is for several VLDB's we run in support of e-discovery...

    The goal was to connect the C460's to UCS, not the Nexus 5k's. That way you could manage the C-Series Rack servers via UCSM, the same way you manage the blades. The Nexus 2000's function the same way the IOM in the chassis operates. The 5k is a proper switch with it's own "brain" so to...
