Yes, the SPARCcenter 2000 was a tall cabinet Sun-4d system with 10 XD 
bus slots and up to 20 CPUs. Sun produced a limited number of SM91 and 
SM92 CPU modules which I believe were only supposed to be used in the 
SC2000(e)...

The big brother of the SC2k was the Cray 6400, which evolved into the 
E10k line.

I gave up a SPARCserver 1000 around 2003-4 when I learned the 1000e had 
a slightly faster interconnect. I collected all the (different) system 
boards, SM81 CPUs and memory, but I never got my hands on an SS1000e 
cabinet/chassis...
