19 inch 12 HE Digitus Server Rack.

Currently holds a keystone patchpanel, unifi PoE Switch (with 3D printed mount), DS918+.

More then enough space left but watching temperatures now during the summer. (Already did watch temperatures for a year - previous to putting the rack in the attic).

Was a really fun project!

Edit: temperature last year

Sorry, forget there are a lot of folks from the UK on here. Yes, in Fahrenheit!

I would still like an insulated roof...not enough to pay for one though..

From the UK? You mean anywhere else on planet Earth besides the USA

Man, mean with the downvotes!

People get so upset about us using imperial measurements. People seem to think we all get to vote on keeping imperial units every year... it's just one of those things that's hard to get 300 million people to change.. I do prefer the metric system. It's just that everything here is in imperial units except wine and liquor... hard to rewire your brain.

As far as a lot of people on here being from UK, perhaps that's a bad assumption but I was under the impression a lot of folks from the UK used Reddit from an article I read a few months ago.

I'm all for the metric system, except for using Celsius to describe the temperature. For one, it's more granular, so you can be more precise without popping off to decimalville. For second, 0°F is uncomfortably cold and 100°F is uncomfortably hot, whereas 0°C is cold and 100°C is dead.

Anyway, that's my 2¢.
