The primary requirement is lots of horsepower to sustain us while we 
rework code to be fast.  I would be moving the execution off a 
dual-processor 700Mhz Xeon, so it has to be 50% faster at a minimum--so 
it won't work for this requirement.  Your idea may very nicely fit other 
needs that are next on the funding chain, if I can find a nice way to 
put two drive into the box in a mirrored configuration.

This seems to me to break the rule mentioned for the case: "*Note that 
the Audio Connector on the EPIA M boards is too tall for this case."  If 
you look at the back panel picture on page 2-7 of the ME6000 manual 
(http://www.viavpsd.com/product/3/4/EPIA-M_Manual_v1.30.pdf, 3Mb), the 
In/Out/Microphone block does indeed stick up higher than the other 
connectors...*
