We are very happy with the tech though, it is very impressive and works well.
That's all I have for now, I will keep feeding you guys more information as it comes in Smiley

Cedivad,

TY for the update.  ~looks like a 'Few' to me...  Doesn't surprise me though, all indications are the play is fast and loose with no forethought or qualified personnel.

Following a quick review of the photo, my professional critique of the installation is as follows:

FAIL

1  Side vents are 50% obstructed by mounting brackets on open side.  
    Comment:  Rack, shelving modules should have been employed instead of mounting brackets.

2  Side vent between units appears fully obstructed (Rack to Rack)
    Comment:  Poor design, lack of knowledge and planning.

3  Bottom Unit in rack 1 is not readily accessible ~the unit above it must be removed to service the bottom one. (We don't put units on the bottom... (Dirt, physical damage, et cetera) start from top down.
    Comment:  Poor design, lack of knowledge and planning.  Guess there is a first time for everything...

4  Rack density does not permit ventilation between units, again amateurish and problematic lending to sever thermal issues down the road that will undoubtedly require considerable configuration.  Problem will likely present when they continue to fill the racks if they follow the same installation format.


For what its worth, this photo may be old ~except for the end rack units, the rest are not aligned or properly secured, looks like it may have been taken during the build itself.

General question to the forum:  With the limited data thus far available, has anyone else calculated thermal output per GN?


EDIT:  PS~  The tech in the photo is named Aladdin; he is waiting for the HF Genie to make a wish...  Not to fret Aladdin, the magic smoke will appear soon...
