So all your orders will be shipped and delivered in the next 9 days, with a major holiday happening in the middle?

Yes, we anticipate delivery in the next 9 days or sooner.  Otherwise refunds will be issued.

Batch One is currently being tested.  All orders are being sent overnight.

If you are trying to host your BabyJet at a colo that only accepts rackmount, there may be an adapter capable of converting the ATX desktop to rails.

This is what I found:

Any Custom Hardware gurus reading this, please weigh in.

The Baby Jet will not be able to be modded to be rack mounted. It may be possible with other cases, but not the one used for Baby Jets (I think its a corsair 750D). It is too wide to fit in a standard 19" rack. In addition, the radiator is mounted in the top of the case, if it was mounted in a rack the hot air would pool between it and the adjacent rack.

Thanks for the correction.  It's refreshing to discuss custom hardware in the 'Custom Hardware' sub for a change.

for rack mount use, airflow needs to be one way.  most data centers will only allow equipment to be used that conforms to their 'hot aisle' and 'cold aisle' plan.

a desktop pc case, can't easily be modified to get the airflow going one way.  its got fans all over the shop.   its not impossible, but its really pointless.   you would be much better off if you just took out the hashfast mobo and cooling system, and re-mount them in a rack mount pc case.

The case is still 21.5" tall, which when mounted sideways would be too big to fit in a 19" rack.
