I don't know the options for the RX2600 so well to know.

They come without disk, for one, but SAS disks aren't all
that hard to find.  (Harder for bigger ones, and more expensive.)
The trays are included, and there are three disk slots.

Mine has 10GB RAM.  That would not have been easy to buy 
for $100 a few years ago, maybe not so hard today (in DDR3).

There was some kind of network card in a PCI slot, which
I removed.  I believe they were part of a large networked
cluster, so special network adaptor.

Dual processor.  I believe that is usual for the RX2600, 
though maybe they sell some with one empty slot.

Ones with management processor were $175.

I can answer more specific questions if you ask, but that
is as much as I remember.
