will this server rack work?

[intertan]

I am looking for a server rack for my unraid server plus other stuff like my htpc. unraid is in the norco 4224 case

the rack is used

81.5 inches high x 46 Inches deep

Rollers

Adjustable rail functionality

Glass front door

Ventilated rear door

It will work as long as you can put a fan on the top to exhaust the hot air.  (looked like there is an opening there)

 

Let me guess:

  A.  you live in a big house and the server rack will not be visible to your spouse.

  or

  B.  your spouse is a system administrator, and it looks great to them.

  or

  C.  you live alone.

 

Seriously, the only down-side is the size and weight.  It looks beautiful to me.  It would fit somewhere in my basement. 

(in my case, it is "A")

I have the 22u version of that rack. I like it a lot.  I wanted it upstairs, and it was too heavy to carry, even empty. I took it apart and carried it upstairs, piece by piece.

Then, it will be perfectly fine.  As mentioned, it is not a light-weight item, so I hope you have some help in moving it to its new home.

 

I expect you will have a very popular home-theater once all is in place.
