They've got lots of flavors from which to choose. Here's one I had used in a portable rack mount case for real time hard disk recording of our band and later for the little RHCE study group we used to have going on at my house: http://www.neuse.net/thermochannel Me thinks mine was 17" and 1U. So, check 'em out. Rumor has it they have a mini ITX flavor that might meet your mechanic specs :-) Regards, Jim Jim Ray, President Neuse River Networks tel: 919-838-1672 cell: 919-606-1772 http://www.Neuse.Net Connecting You to the World since 1997 > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David > McDowell > Sent: Monday, February 19, 2007 2:22 PM > To: TriLUG > Subject: [TriLUG] OT~ish: 2U cases - 14" depth > > Ok, so I'm searching around for a 2U rackmount case that is only 14" > deep (I think they list most of these as 13.9" technically *shrugs*) > I'm not sure I feel satisfied with the ones I'm seeing on NewEgg. > I've also visited servercase.com and rackmountnet.com.
