So...migrated from the old Supermicro platform to an Intel platform? I caught the Intel system board part number around 5:20. That makes me happy because after the HP/Nimble acquisition I was concerned that they might have just been going after infosight and that this mid level array might go away. As a Nimble customer(pre HPE), I can say the HPE team has continued to be a great resource.

Chuck could use a little more training how to insert an HDD tray. I could tell he is a good salesman sell you a HP Nimble Storage CS-Series Array. I would be honored to show him the proper way hold an HDD/SSD tray for insertion.

My question is why the fuck do these things cost up to 1 million?

Is there any information about how HPE plans to use SCM and NVMe in Nimble arrays besides telling you need to plug them in once available?
