This one is $141 more than the one that HPE didn't ship in December. But it's Provantage. Some sense, its $15 cheaper than the X3216 dual core version, yet it uses the quad core CPU so it's probably a better value

@Patrick didn't you say in that $175 deal thread that you're testing the X3421 version? Do you have any benchmarks to share.
I don't think this is as good of a deal, but since drives will cost the most, the $141 per node might be worth it for the quad core.
