Workhorse is a secondary designer that fabricates equipment for multiple companies; the largest customers being Dell and hp. Some such as Dell will badge them (poweredge workhorse). HP workhorse Q500 etc. Some Apple servers in the early osX era also were built out by workhorse and iBM uses them for , like hp, drive enclosures. TigerDirectB2B used them for their in house servers and before iBuyPower switched to exclusively 3rd party cases they used workhorse for rebadged computers.
Nothing overly special about them other than things are not quite standard, a bit thinner or fatter or slightly wider (or shorter). Etc. The internals are at wort off the line (a short run) if not off the shelf. Watch for 'fake' screws that are actually rivets or soldered in. If something doesn't move the way you expect stop and figure out why, don't force it to do what it /should/ do. Many of these units wind up in I&M or military fields so also make sure there's no epoxy sealer on the boards when you do your quote; it downgrades them a step. And it's very bad to try to get that stuff off on your own. Don't try you WILL get sick!
