We are trying to roll our own server/router/accounting box and have everything speced out but the chassis, we need to find a PC rack mount chassis that is no higher than 2U ( 3.5"). The co-los we use charge us not only by bandwidth but by real estate, we need to cram as many boxes as we can in the space. In fact if you know of a 1U (like the cobalt boxes) that would be even better. Any clues would be greatly appreciated.
Whoa, that would be awfully tight. If I were you, I would simply pay for extra rack space, and get an Appro (www.appro.com) NITEO or 42xx...
If I use a mother board that has Ultra2 scsi and 10/100 all on board I don't need anything else, theese are servers, I don't need sound cards, framebuffers, or anything else, just space for two 4 Gig disks The units that mention 5 slot passive backplanes... can I still put an ATX formfactor motherboard in the bottom?
