Sun has a lot of information on it's web pages. U1: http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/Ultra_1/Ultra_1.html U1E: http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/Ultra_1E/Ultra_1E.html You can tell U1 from U1E looking at system board part number, there are also slight differences in component layout, or by backplate - U1 has 50pin SCSI connector, U1E has 68pin SCSI, U1 has DB15 MAU Ethernet connector, U1E has MII connector.
