Wasn't my choice, but one wasn't enough so we threw a few more at it. So mostly for performance, but the redundancy is an added benefit. They were a pretty decent space, power/heat, performance, and noise ratio for us. Our office is a single room with six desks, so space, noise, and heat are a larger consideration for us. I use a mini PC at home for a personal server as well, but that's just because used enterprise equipment is often a great deal.
