Hey folks, I'm looking to move a backup server/game server I have on my DSL line with a static IP out of my home office and into a DC somewhere but I need to get a 1u or a 2u case. Basically, I'm not even sure if I need a 1u or a 2u.
Here's the specs:
1) Mini-Tower with an ATX mobo
2) One 60 GB IDE HDD
3) 384 MB SDRAM
4) One fan/heatsink
Would a 1u work fine? And are there any specs on a rackmount case that I'd need to take note of before buying one to transfer PC hardware into it?
Also-
Basically I'm just looking for a cheap place to buy a used 1u or 2u case from or a cheap new one that I can move PC architecture into and ship off to a DC I'll probably leave at until it goes bankrupt. The box is only a 900 MHz Tbird so it wouldn't be that big of a loss. Any pointers? Thanks in advance,
Rob
