I worked at Canyon Park Data Center (one of Microsoft's original Data Centers in Puget Sound) and they had just as you walked into the data center floor a Unisys rack that had like 64 individual SBC to work in unison with WinNT Clustering. It was configured like a Cray where you had a maintenance pc/laptop that was the console for booting/operating the entire rack - so yes, make sure you have all the parts together when one of those hits the recycler.
