Review: Perfect for audio gear - Super solid. Excellent build quality. I use it for analogue audio gear and would absolutely recommend. 19” racks fit perfectly as well as 500 series chassis. No chance of this thing tipping over; it’s just solid. Others like this are angled so that you really can’t use the bottom couple spaces, but you don’t have that problem with this one! I’ve filled up all 16 spaces with a combination of gear and drawers. Will absolutely buy another once I start to get more gear to fill it up.
Review: Perfect value for a home server, I prefer this to my 4 post rack - Compared to a full four post rack this is 1000% easier to assemble and has most of the same functionality. I was afraid my longest server chassis (24” depth) would cause it to tilt over but it really doesn’t, and it isn’t even close to doing so. Overall, I’d recommend this to almost anyone over a 4 post/caster rack. It’s just SO much simpler, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. I have a 4U UNRAID server chassis, 2U computer chassis, 1U switch, 1U patch panel, and 2U shelf with raspberry pi’s and assorted smarthome hubs. This chassis, unlike my previous 4 post chassis, holds all that AND let’s me maneuver it in and out of small closets and corners to keep it hidden (essential for the wife approval factor). And I even recommend this for people who need their server to roll, and would recommend using a floor dolly or wheeled shelf. The experience will be better than the incredibly heavy 4 post rack for most people. The included mounting screws are solid and plentiful. The finish is sturdy and doesn’t easily develop deep scratches. I do wish the Star Tech logo was an optional sticker, it’s fairly large and a bit garish.
