KWestos Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Can anyone recommend a 22u cabinet to accept a HP C3000 blade unit. Although I like the HP one, it's quite expensive. If anyone can convince me to purchase it, then I may do. Cheers
Ric_ Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Why 22u? Isn't that a bit of an odd size? I use 42u APC cabs and have been very impressed with their build quality for the price.
FN-GM Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 We have 1 of these - Dell PowerEdge Rack 2410 and 6 of these - Dell PowerEdge Rack 4210 good bit of kit in my opinion. To be honest they are pretty much the same.

I have a 28u with about 9u spare. But want another to accommodate my new blade, but could not envisage using all the extra u's Do you have any links to the APC'S, thanks

If my maths is correct, 28-9+22=41 so would it not be neater to get a single 48u which would allow you plenty of room to space out your kit whilst keeping the same footprint?

I was just thinking the same thing, but I doubt my colleagues would be able to reach the top without a ladder Many thanks for the link!
FN-GM Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 They do look good, not sure on the price. Does it matter how they look?
john Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 I use Mills Ltd Cabinets - Mills Ltd. - Welcome to Mills Online they are very good and good value for money.
