@tekneticmusic oh, thanks for the info! Then there's not much use of such a machine today - it uses a lot of electricity, produces a lot of noise, and has a very limited upgrade possibilities. And it's a 3U case, so it must weigh like 40 kilos! But anyway, I'd have one just for the look. I've now got a 2U Dell poweredge as my home server, and I really like it for being huge and noisy :)
The hard drive configuration in this is horrible, as the only bay is the hot swap one, which only supports Ultra 160sl SCSI, meaning that you have to route a cable from somewhere else for SATA or something else. Also, there are no molex connectors in the server, so I had to hack a connector onto it for my drives.

what's located in the front left part of the server? The PSU? Or is there some space to fit a few hard drives?
