Server Rack Choices

I'm looking for recommendations on a sturdy server rack. Budget is $1600 (just for the rack) and I'd like to use these case unless someone can recommend better ones for a similar price. (http://www.neweggbusiness.com/Product/Product.aspx?gcli...) I'd like to be able to fit 8-10 of these cases. I'd also like a ball bearing rail system if possible so I can easily slide the cases in and out.

Thank you for any input!

Rail systems are usually dependent upon your server chassis, not the actual rack cabinet. So I'm not sure if I can help you much there with finding a compatible rail kit to match with your selected server chassis.

I personally have used Tripplite server chassis and I think they are wonderful quality. There are some server cabinets out there which are not deep enough to correctly rack many server systems that have a longer depth, but the Tripplite units that I've used have all been 42" depth allowing for plenty of room to mount servers plus cabling and work room around the servers as well. There are many options available, including units at Newegg, which are well within your budget range.
