Last month we introduced the PowerEdge C410X expansion chassis which, when populated with GPGPUs and attached to a server, brings about ginormous increases in performance in a very cost effective manner.

A couple weeks after the system debuted NextIO, who creates and sells virtualized IO capabilities, was looking to qualify the machine in their lab located here in Austin.   Wanting to add that personal touch, Franklin Flint and Corbin Moore from our OEM solutions group decided to pack the system in the back of Franklin’s truck and hand deliver it to Bob Shaw at NextIO.

What you have below is a no-expenses-spared documentary of their journey.  Enjoy! 🙂
