Well, if small space and 64bit PCI are important, this is far more useful
than a V100 (which if memory serves is small space and no PCI) or a U60
(which is PCI but big space). Also, it's scsi and takes two externally
accessible hotplug drives.

I'm planning to put one into a colo soon where I pay per rack unit and
it's a great deal with this critter. I got one a year or so ago for $1100
and will finally put it to some use.
