Basically, we have the following: 2 Dell 1850 – dual power supply - 1U 1 Dell 1950 – dual power supply - 1U 1 Dell NAS – dual power supply - 2U We have the space for the servers. We’re only concerned about the UPS and A/C. I can calculate the UPS needs, although if someone knows of an online calculator to do this that would be great. But the real question is A/C and heat. The goal is to put this into a rack in a small server closet, along with a VOIP PBX, ASA 5505, 48-port switch, and aforementioned UPS. The new office is being designed as we speak, so we have some say in terms of ductwork and airflow in the server closet. However, we don’t have much impact on the dimensions. The server closet is going to have enough room for one rack and the ability to sneak behind the rack itself. What are your thoughts on our A/C and airflow needs? How do I calculate our needs the best? And should we look into a rack/cabinet that has some type of A/C and airflow solution built into it? --- Puryear IT, LLC - We see IT differently.
