Anyone done a side-by-side comparison for Atlantis ILIO vs Nimble for VDI? Both seems to offer crazy IOPS.

We won't ever be able to get researches to use VMs (partly because of how much NSF sucks) so it's going to core infrastructure only for us, as well as a whole pile of storage (because somehow my boss has tricked everyone so that we can sell storage to researchers).

Drop in some Cisco UCS B230 M2 Blade Servers with 512Gb per host. Go hog wild with RAM density.
