It shouldn't be a major deal, but it does seem to be. I'm looking to replace an ASUS AP1600R-S5. I just want something that has the same sort of setup (Dual Xeons, 4G mem in enough chips I can remove 1/2 if there a memory issue suspected, 4 small size hot swap drives), CD/floppy INTERNAL this time, I need a SCSI on a different port/channel/etc externally for a RAID, and a redundant power supply would be really nice. Trying to get companies to contact me back and get numbers that make sense is really problematic. Am I asking for too much? Or too little? Or too old (SCSI). Thanks, Tuc
