Just curious, how often do you need/want to go inside them?

Personally, I'd go low, but that would be out of necessity, since I'd have to 
install them by myself ;^)

I'm in the market for another rack - the one I have is too shallow, I'm hoping 
to find something at TCF next month, but it is hard to find nice chassis at 
"reasonable" prices - I might go to metro shelving, but I'd rather have 
another proper rack...
