Finally decided to replace my existing server rack. I’d bought cheap when I picked it up about 4 years ago, and while it’s been solid, it’s an open frame rack, which required me to enclose it. That’s not ideal, for a lot of reasons.
So I bought a shorter, fully enclosed rack. Turns out this one includes a fan/temperature controller. My DIY one didn’t, so this will be a welcome addition.
I also picked up a proper in-rack LCD, and some more shelves. No more trying to fake it! It all comes more or less within the next 2 weeks, so once it arrives I’ll certainly be busy. Moving everything out of the existing rack is no joke after all, and there’s no small number of wires that will need to be nicely run.
Totally worth it though. I may even take pictures when I’m done.
