The most obvious difference is the case in which the computer components reside. A rackmount case is built of heavier sheet metal and is closed, almost sealed top, bottom and sides. These cases are modular in that they can be bolted into a rack cabinet and literally stacked one atop the other even if cases are of differing heights. They conform to a 19-inch rack mount standard width (meaning they are 17 inches wide in the body with one-inch mounting ears on each side - they also conform to a height standard where one rack space equals 1.75 inches, so rackmount computers can be 1U, 2U, as many as 8U or more in height).
