Re: [OT] - Rackmount Cases (Well maybe not OT - You Decide)

["Shaf" <shaf@xxxxxxx>]

Yeh 1U cases in the UK are expensive (£140cheapest I seen - £600) plus
you'll have problems getting the right backplane to fit your mobo, PSU
issues the list is endless... So I ended up buying a a complete(minus CPU
and RAM of course) gigabyte dual CPU 1U box from scan : They have
reasonable
boxes starting from 500 squid mark.
(http://www.scan.co.uk/products/Products.ASP?CatID=36)

You'll definately have better luck with 2U and upwards building from
scratch
but 1U is a pain. And really you should only think of 1U if you wanna slap
maximum bang into small volumes and save on colo rent.
