Interesting packaging. 6 mini-itx boards, each with a 2.5" drive in a 1U form factor. 44U in a rack and you get their 264 servers number. It does not appear to have redundant power supplies.
They talk about smashing the $500 per node price point for hardware, so there is plenty of room for profit in their model.
