Hey list,

I'm just asking opinions here, but:

What do you prefer for a 2U rack mount server case?  I want to keep the
cost down, but I want something that looks nice and is functional.  I've
got 5 servers I'm looking at replacing existing cases on to make them
match, as well as to free up some rack space, as some cases I currently
own are 4U, and some are 2U.

Also, a good UPS rack mount?  I'm currently exploring the APC Smart-UPS
1500VA.  This is a home/hobby type network, and all I need to backup is:

1) 5 servers (no monitors)
2) DSL Modem
3) 24-port Switch
4) Wifi AP

Thanks!

Eric
