Compared to new server racks their prices are reasonably competitive. When you add the bus bars they are definitely very competitive to buying other server racks. I wonder if they are using the racks as a loss-leader to sell the batteries.He mentioned a couple of times that you could only get the rack from signature if you purchase their batteries. I wonder why?
Hmm, maybe.Compared to new server racks their prices are reasonably competitive. When you add the bus bars they are definitely very competitive to buying other server racks. I wonder if they are using the racks as a loss-leader to sell the batteries.
you can pick them up used for pennies on the dollar if you can haul them away.
Hi Paul,
It’s old from my recording console. Had 700lbs of old Linear power supplies. Should do well with the batteries. If you want it to try, come grab it, no charge, otherwise probably going to get recycled. We will be home this evening and tomorrow afternoon/ evening in the south end of Fremont
Yeah, if you don't need to move it I would bolt it to the floor. And start filling it from the bottom up.I'm also an IT guy, but have spent only a small amount of time working in a data center. I've had a few server racks that I've picked up and passed on to friends. I have only one left in my garage. I can't speak to the holes and sizing between them. As I recall, every server rack I've dealt with had a weight in the bottom to help keep the rack from tipping over. These are quite heavy. If there is any chance that the rack could be moved, I would avoid a rack without the bottom weight.
