Hi Donovan
there is also a very good "Evaluation Guide available from the URL below
which discusses hardware requirements for MySQL Cluster, along with data
models, query design and configuration tools. While it does not answer
specific questions around the x4150, there is a lot you can gain in
making the most of your evaluation by reading this paper:
