Hi, We use dell M610 blades with 2x6core + 96GB ram each for vmware. One of our clients is using dell R610 for xenservers with similar spec. The above are enterprise hardware therefore pricy and they boot slow, but convenient to use and reliable.
To have 10 times 16GB you'd need at least two full spec of the above for example. You can go for 4cores instead of 6 as 4 cores with hyperthreading would mean 8vCPU for your HV. If you want failover should a node die then 3 of the above plus shared storage server or servers if you need resilience on storage side as well.
