What is benefit of dual NICs in x86 Ultra models?
Nice to have two NICs, but I am not sure what the main purpose is, to be honest. Is it to provide increased transfer over the network? For example when multiple clients are storing/retrieving files...

On the Ultra you can use the two NICs to e.g. connect to two different networks. You cannot team the NICs.
On the 312 you can team the NICs to provide improved performance and/or failover.
