(the 6023P requires low profile cards only.) To update, I seem to have managed to confuse myself during my shopping. :) The 6023L-8R uses the X5DLR-8G2 with Broadcom NICs but still requires low profile cards. It doesnt look like they have a 533 2u system that uses the 400RC chassis. The 6023P-8R uses the X5DP8-G2 board with Intel NICs. I may end up combining the SC822R-400RC chassis with the X5DLR-8G2 board, instead of using the combo system, if I end up needing to use non-low profile cards. --- david raistrick drais@atlasta.net http://www.expita.com/nomime.html
