its used for servers
cooling with lots of raid hard drives, SCSI setups and cd roms to share info
i have one this size, i don't have a server. but its really nice to have for space and air flow.

I figured it was for a server, I didn't notice that all the bays were internal, I though that big clear space at the top had room for like 6 external bays, and I was really wondering why someone would need that many external.
my mistake.

ahhh, we use them, we just don't like to admit it, i think ive got:
1 CD rom
2 tape drives
1 5 1/4 / 3 1/2 floppy combo
1 absolutely gigantic scsi HDD that sounds like an engine (thats why im making a hog)
and something else thats retarded (don't feel like trudging over to it)
nothing else to do? just grab your monster server, and cram it full of stupid crap. lol. mine weighs all of the 64 pounds, and then some.
that monitor mount is gonna have to be strong, the monitor weighs about 50 pounds. hmmmm
