Review

"To make a long story short, whether you're looking for a machine to play with Longhorn on, or just an inexpensive server or workstation machine, I would certainly recommend that you take a look at the Dell 400sc. It's inexpensive, the performance so far seems very good, and the build quality and attention to detail are really impressive. The chassis is nearly completely toolless (the only exception being that you need a screwdriver to attach the drive rails if you're installing a new drive), and is set up to make upgrades almost entirely painless. To upgrade the video card I simply opened the case, released the latch holding in all the expansion cards, removed the crappy 8MB PCI card, installed the new AGP card (note that AGP is functional, but not officially supported), and replaced the latch. All of the drive cable plugs have loop handles so that you can remove the plugs without straining the cable or bending pins...very well-thought out. As if you can't tell, I'm very pleased with this machine (I'm already considering buying another to replace a noisy rack server I use for my Web server...unlike my noisy box, the 400sc is nearly silent)."
