Portable A/C for computer room?Once when we lost power I tried a portable AC unit and it couldn't cool the server room for anything. I don't know how many BTUs it is. Our room is a little smaller then yours and has 7 servers. Is 11,000 BTU more then a ton cause I rented a 1 ton unit once and it cooled fine. Now I have a dedicated unit above the ceiling that taps into the chilled water system but if the power goes Im out of luck. Oh and if the cooling tower gets hit by lightning and damaged, Im also out of luck, which happened two weeks ago BTW.

I am looking for suggestions on a portable air conditioner for my server room. Room is 9' x 13' and currently has a Mr. Slim AC unit in it. In the event of a power outage, I am planning on using a portable generator to run a portable AC unit to keep things cool. From what I've seen on Lowes.com and other places, 11,000 BTU units are under $500. Any thing else I need to look for when getting one of these? . ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
