Hello
We currently have 2x "Intel Server System SR2600URBRPR" servers.
We are moving our offices to a new location but we cannot take our Rack chassis with us so we are looking to buy a new one.
In the current solution the servers do not fit the rack so they are resting at the bottom of the rack which is neither a pretty nor practical solution.
Right now we are looking to buy a "Toten 19" Floor Cabinet 15U 600X800" but as far as we can see the 2 servers wont fit just as the current solution.
1st reason is because we changed the disks to SSD's but SSD disks don't fit correctly in the drive bays so each bay extends a few cm from the server chassis.
2nd it seems the server chassis is a bit too long for the rack chassis - As far as we can tell.
It is not possible to replace the servers so the solutions we are looking at are the following:
1. Replace the server chassis with one that fits in the rack chassis.
2. Replace the rack chassis with one that fits the servers. The requirement are that we have both front and back access but with the possibility closing the rack both front and back.
3. If none of the above is possible then we have no choice but to place the servers outside the rack wither on the floor or on top of the rack. This solution is our fallback if neither solution 1 or 2 is possible.
We hope someone can point us in the right direction.
Thanks
Kenneth
