Managed to get one of these a few weeks ago, but never found time to play with it until just recently.
The X10SDV-7TP4F is a Xeon D-1537 storage optimized platform, sporting an LSI 2116 controller with 16 IT ports presented as SFF-8643 (high density 4 lane) , two Intel 1Gbps, and two SFP+ 10Gbps ports on a tiny little board that can take up to 128GB of RAM.
Geekbench around 15000.
With two 32GB RDIMM's and no other accessories, it is idling around 37 watts when powered by a 480 watt platinum PSU (PWS-441P-1H).
Retail cost is probably around $900, which isn't totally unreasonable if you sum up the cost of an equivalent Skylake E3 system decked out with a 16 port HBA and dual 10GbE.
It's pretty intriguing but it isn't quite blowing me away. More details as I play with it.
