Hello,
ATM our servers are sitting atop a ikea cupboard with our componants in side the cupboard with the switch stuck to the side and the firewall/ups sitting aside the servers.
as you can see this is not ideal lol. so i am looking for some server cabinets to tidy the place up. but as this is the first time buying one i have some questions.
we need one that is roughly 25u or higer i think as we need to fit everything inside. but this is where i get stuck, so here are my questions:
1. can you put any server into any server rack, or do i need a specific type?
2. can you put other stuff inside or are they disigned just for servers, for instance i want top put everything inside, ups/swithc/servers/fireall, even the box of spare wires and keyboards mice etc
3. can i get a decent one that dont run into the 1000s of dollers catagory?
Thanks for taking the time to help a simpleton.
