TrippLite Racks
Nov 5, 2009
I've been quite happy with the TrippLite equipment we've used in the past and I'm looking for good quality, reasonably priced racks to use in our commodity DC. One interesting one I came across was being sold by Dell alongside the Dell PowerEdge 4210 we use for the main USSHC DC - the TrippLite SR42UBEXP.
If anyone has any hands on experience with TrippLites racks/cabinets I'd be interested in hearing about it. I'm very happy with the PowerEdge racks but since I can find the TrippLites, which appear to be very comparable in design, for about 1/2 the price I'd be willing to consider them.

Does anyone know a good source to buy NEBS certified racks from? They must be NEBS certified as they are going in a central office that requires all equipment (including racks) to be NEBS certified.

I am currently with the planet and am happy with them, however as part of a new venture I need to gather a list of hosts as well as the planet that will be able to cater to the ventures needs and go to tender with the requirements.
ThePlanet offer something called a virtual rack. This is cheaper than renting a dedicated rack, allows for Gb networking but doesnt not allow for a SAN. Do other providers offer something similar? The cost of putting a machine on the virtual rack is not that much more expensive than just renting the machine. I guess there isn't too much to these set-ups to be fair.
If not, then we are looking for dedicated racks, with the ability to host a SAN at some point, but starting off with say 3 servers (2 web servers, 1 storage server with raid5 6Tb of hdd). These servers will be dealing with network cameras although I don't think that many will be streaming at once but the network capacity does need to be there.
Who's door should I be knocking on to find out some prices?
One final thing, should I bother looking for co-lo providers as well? We are in the Uk but not precious about our host being in the same country at all (it would be nice but uk prices are ££). Really, all we would be able to do with co-lo is buy the hardware outright to save price as we are not interested in looking after the hardware.
