LOL - No Dave, it is definately not upside down, and I have never seen 
one quite like it.   It has the on off switch at the top left, slightly 
below that a LED speed display, and turbo and reset buttons, then one 
full size hidden bay, and five external bays below that, all full width. 
     The external drive bays are all high enough to take CDROMs. 
Originally the external bays were hidden by a door, but that had already 
been broken before I got it.
