Hey guys, I appreciate the input but I did some research. #1. They are a bit older (Original ML 350 boxes), and there isn't a SmartStart assisted install for Windows 2003. #2. Even when rack converted, they are still 5U or 6U chassis. The end goal is for me to have these at HOME in a "testlab" environment, which involved being in a 22U rack along with the rest of the test universe minus workstations <grin>. Thanks for the info, though.
