On storage part i would be positioning EMC .

@cram.mib - you can use http://www.dell.com/calc to calculate power consumption of the M1000e blade chassis and M610/M710 blade servers. In terms of performance, I would suggest you going to http://www.spec.org especially CPU2006 - http://www.spec.org/cgi-bin/osgresults?conf=cpu2006 and refining the search terms to Dell to get published performance scores. Also, http://www.vmware.com/products/vmmark/results.html has VMmark resullts for Dell blade servers publicly listed.

We also have Business Ready Configs that highlight the Dell blade servers in virtualized environment- http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/Dell+Virtualization+Engineering+White+Papers check out the blade + ESX bundle whitepaper.

You should also check out Scott's demo on CMC - http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/PowerEdge+Blade+Demos.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
