With HP you can chose to have fibre in it or not, obviously cheaper without. You don't really need Altiris to take snapshots, just use VMWare and Vmotion.
All blades have the option to not have the fibre connections and Alteris make a suite for the Dell servers, and if its based on price then HP wouldnt get a look in
Oh, I see, you mean built onto the motherboard so to speak, my bad.
