It is common in 19" server racks. Rather, it is pretty uncommon NOT to 
find SCSI in servers; at least it is a very good indicator that a 
machine is likely el-cheapo consumer crap (ROHS etc leading to 
selfdestruction magically after end of warranty to keep the market 
running) if there is not at least a SCSI option
