| 740975 | 2009-01-22 20:49:00 | I agree - definitley a good effort considering - however not the best design for a server rack. A few tweaks, a sand and some paint, then we'll be talking. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 740976 | 2009-01-22 21:08:00 | I'm thinking about painting it... What colour? The Rails DEFINATELY are strong enough and over a 12 hour period the CPU temperature was only 35 Degrees Stable... | designcentral (14551) | ||
| 740977 | 2009-01-22 21:21:00 | IMO - Get a jigsaw and put some nice long 'holes' in the side of the server case to allow a bit of airflow, sand and undercoat, then paint black. Preferably spray. |

| 740978 | 2009-01-22 21:25:00 | OKay, will do... | designcentral (14551) | ||
| 740979 | 2009-01-22 21:56:00 | you have to start some place and a real rack will cost $1500 or more. a good number of us started out a bit cheep and ugly. often the DIY solution can be very good for learning why the real thing costs so much :-) what OS will the servers be running?? |
