 Server racks. They're kind of like knock-to-a-fans or construction equipment in that the only people they're winning any style points with are the folks who have this like deep appreciation for Utility. That's the way it's always been And that's the way that it looked like it was gonna be forever until now Playtech a division of I star USA with whom we've worked in the past on our surveillance server our PfSense router that we DIY'd over a span of months as well as our off-site backup server has actually designed and manufactured a piece of what they're calling IT furniture the WRT retro style rack So let's have a look and see what one of those is Zotac's GTX 1080 mini is extremely compact and powerful measuring just 8.3 inches in length check it out at the link in the video description I Actually have no idea how much these things cost I have no idea how many of them have been made They are listed as build to order on the clay tech site, but what I do know is that like For a company whose experience is mostly in building black nondescript boxes The craftsmanship is looking not bad alright Brandon you win your battle It looks like we're taking this tablecloth off Fine Here it is Oh, man heavy Very well packed that's for sure so they've actually got a bunch of different models available everything from a Very very small very shallow cabinet all the way to one that's actually quite a bit larger and Deeper than this one, so I went for a 9u 450 millimeter so that's 45 centimeter deep cabinet so obviously Something like this wouldn't be suitable for mounting you know like Like a really long storage server or anything like that But if you're looking for a super cool place to put some AV equipment or You know some network switches or you know a very very small machine This is looking pretty good Let's flip it over So I've clearly got it upside down Okay, so the craftsmanship is not perfect You know Steve Jobs you know cable manage the inside of you know laptops and phones probably wouldn't be that impressed with the The wood trim not meeting up here and with these kind of Unimpressive plastic feet, but let's go ahead and turn it over and see what the tops like maybe it makes up for it In the parts that you actually see So much like a sort of retro styled Trunk or case you've got This actual leather Actually leather I mean, I guess it's one of those things where if you're gonna go our word You might as well go full full our word so the handles on the sides the corner protectors here and here are all genuine leather now Let's put some gear in it shall we About a half an hour till WAN show so I'm thinking Let's put all of our audio equipment in it What could go wrong focus right just set us up with this stuff And this is a this is exactly the kind of thing that I would expect someone to put In a piece of you know rack equipment like this Remember kids Always take a picture of the back Before disassembling something that you don't know how to put back together Shoop shoop shoop It's m5 It's m5 threaded rather than having Like what you'd see in a full-size cabinet with the inserts on the back and the much heavier threading so I Really wouldn't recommend mounting anything super heavy in here, but man Once you get some actual gear in here. I don't know what it is about the aesthetic of like audio equipment and This retro kind of charm that we got going on here But I think this thing looks really cool Actually, I had a thought I've got this chassis sitting around from actually it's an iStar USA chassis that I was supposed to do a project with and never got around to it And it looks like no that was a bit of an oversight When it comes to the design of this thing So one two three one two three one two three one two three yeah So if they had thought of it They could have made it so that the bottom holes lined up perfectly for something to sit right on the bottom but as it is You would actually have to support it Off of these screws, which I don't think would be recommended however If you did just want to like ghetto mount it then you could Throw some kind of a storage machine or some kind of a processing machine down here in the middle No big deal Okay, I got a couple more things I got a network switch and our old ice guzzi box here just to fill it up Have a look at what that's gonna look like And uh, oh man, yeah see this one this network switch is pretty heavy In you go Oh, I put it in upside down Oh put it in upside down. Oh, whatever. Yeah that linus guy What does he know about rack mounting things? That looks so cool, I love it It's like freaking amazing it's like on the one side it's like old-fashioned and retro and The other side it's like oh my goodness. Look at all these dials and buttons But now the final benchmark those leather handles how do they hold up to it actually being loaded Oh, okay, hold on you know what you're going heavy side heavy side on my side Okay, hold on Have you ever thought to yourself Hmm.
