Looking for a good 1 or 2U rackmount case.

Hi everyone,

I'm in the process of building my own webservers and while I have decided on the internal configuration -- most likely a Asus CUSL ATX motherboard -- I'd like to know where I can purchase good cheap one or two U cases.
The case must be large enough to hold one hard drive, a floppy, and CD. Furthermore, I need a good way to add two NIC cards (is there any good alternative to PCI NIC's?). Can all this fit into a 1U case? If not, what's a good 2U case to get?

Thanks,

Dennis

you know you might need atleast 3Us with that unless you're not going to put a video card in there or other stuff.

1 U is like 1.25" With the height of motherboard + video card, I think you're just slightly bigger then 2U

Hi Forcheso,

I'll probably be using a motherboard with an integrated graphics card. I figure there's no need for fancy graphics if you're using a server.
