The chassis in question is the [Logic Case 4U Short][2]. Everything fit in pretty well with a lot of breathing room, but having to replace the CPU cooler was a bit of a pain. I needed to replace it with something not to tall, not too expensive, and available with next day delivery.

I did, however, have another concern and that was future expandability.

When I started the project to move all my computers into a single rack to save some space, and to look cool, I knew I wanted some kind of monitor in it.
|
||||
|
||||
There were a bunch of options for big and ugly KVM panels that pull out, but that wasn't what I was looking for.
|
||||
|
||||
In the AV world there are often small screen monitors in racks for keeping an eye on the broadcast outputs, but they are often quite expensive, and the monitor qualities also aren't great unless you spend a _lot_.
|
||||
|
||||
## Display Panels
|
||||
|
||||
I decided the best thing to do would be to DIY something, there are [loads of small panels available][1] on Amazon, and if <a href="https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DELKqBL" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">order from China</a> you can shave a few quid off as well.
|
||||
|
||||
After doing a bit of research it seemed Waveshare was going to be a reliable brand, so I opted to spend a little more and get something with a reputation, and some decent online documentation. I ordered two of the [Waveshare 7inch displays][2].
|
||||
|
||||
The panels arrived and I plugged them both into the Intel NUC I was planning on driving them with. All looked good.<figure class="wp-block-image size-large wp-duotone-unset-3">

I planned to use one screen to display my Grafana dashboard (more on that in the future…) - and another to display video content, so I tested it out with Lord of the Rings.<figure class="wp-block-video"><video controls src="https://danbaker.dev/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/IMG_6353.mp4"></video></figure>
|
||||
|
||||
With the monitors sorted, I got back to thinking about how to mount the things in the rack. I had two main options, either get someone to fabricate something, or DIY something myself.
|
||||
|
||||
## Monitor Mount Panel
|
||||
|
||||
I can get access to a CO2 laser cutter with a decent sized bed that could cut something, but that would involve designing something to size, acquiring something to cut - metal? plastic? - and then actually doing it.
|
||||
|
||||
Getting someone to fabricate me something was also an option, but obviously more expensive.
|
||||
|
||||
I was about to pull the trigger on making my own when I came across a company setting mounts designed to fit some of their own monitors - [Lilliput Direct][3]. They make a [19″ 4U dual panel bracket][4] which looked to be exactly what I was after.
|
||||
|
||||
After getting hold of the technical documentation from Keith at Lilliput, who was extremely helpful, I measured up and decided there would be enough of the surround of the monitor to attach to the panel without needing to use the standard mount points. I'd sort out the exact details later.<figure class="wp-block-image size-large wp-duotone-duotone-1">

You can just about make out the hot glued mounts on the rear in the above photo.
|
||||
|
||||
The only downside to this method is the original mounting holes on the panel remain, I am planning on either filling and painting these - or sticking something over it. Maybe more stickers.<figure class="wp-block-image size-large wp-duotone-unset-5">

title: Moving all my stuff into a server rack – Part 3, Housing the PS5 and some decor

At this stage in the build I was about ready to find a way to house my PS5 in my rack, and do some general decor. If you haven't checked out [Part 1][1] and [part 2][2] yet, check them out first!
|
||||
|
||||
One of the main reasons for moving things into a rack in the first place was to clear _all_ my tech - or as much as possible. Housing the PS5 would clear a fair bit of room from the surfaces in my den, they are not small things.
|
||||
|
||||
Hunting around I found that there was one commercially available PS5 shelf for AV racks but it was ridiculously over priced, so ultimately I decided that just putting it on a shelf in the rack was going to be the best bet.
|
||||
|
||||
I found a few rack shelves, but the one I went for was a <a href="https://amzn.to/3U2wc8O" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">simple 1U shelf</a> with a depth of 250mm - enough for the PS5 to sit on.<figure class="wp-block-image size-large">

It would certainly look a bit better with a proper fronting panel on it, but for my purposes this works just fine.<figure class="wp-block-image size-large">

As you can see from the rear, it sits on the shelf nicely. Don't worry about the cable management… I'll deal with that later…
|
||||
|
||||
### Decoration!
|
||||
|
||||
As you've probably seen from previous posts, I have some blanking panels installed to fill in the gaps that I have covered in stickers. Obviously this won't be to everyones taste, but I love it.
|
||||
|
||||
Blanking panels are available all over the place in a variety of U heights, <a href="https://amzn.to/3SkVzBq" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">mine are all 1U</a> so I can move things about without having to think about it too much. If you didn't want to get stickers to decorate it, you could get vented blanking planels to switch up your air flow.
|
||||
|
||||
Packs of 50-100 stickers are available from your favourite online retailer in whatever themes you can imagine.
|
||||
|
||||
I also added a chocobo standing in the bottom of the rack as there was a very handy spot for it.<figure class="wp-block-image size-large">
|
||||
|
||||
<img data-dominant-color="38417f" data-has-transparency="false" style="--dominant-color: #38417f;" loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="880" src="https://i0.wp.com/danbaker.dev/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/IMG_6619-1024x880.webp?resize=1024%2C880&ssl=1" alt="A chocobo made of plastic bricks" class="not-transparent wp-image-137" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/danbaker.dev/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/IMG_6619-jpg.webp?resize=1024%2C880&ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/danbaker.dev/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/IMG_6619-jpg.webp?resize=300%2C258&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/danbaker.dev/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/IMG_6619-jpg.webp?resize=768%2C660&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/danbaker.dev/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/IMG_6619-jpg.webp?w=1151&ssl=1 1151w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" data-recalc-dims="1" /> </figure>
|
||||
|

And with that, the rack is almost complete. I'll cover networking in a completely separate post as that covers my whole house.<figure class="wp-block-image size-large">

title: Moving all my stuff into a server rack – Part 3, Housing the PS5 and some decor

At this stage in the build I was about ready to find a way to house my PS5 in my rack, and do some general decor. If you haven't checked out [Part 1][1] and [part 2][2] yet, check them out first!
|
||||
|
||||
One of the main reasons for moving things into a rack in the first place was to clear _all_ my tech - or as much as possible. Housing the PS5 would clear a fair bit of room from the surfaces in my den, they are not small things.
|
||||
|
||||
Hunting around I found that there was one commercially available PS5 shelf for AV racks but it was ridiculously over priced, so ultimately I decided that just putting it on a shelf in the rack was going to be the best bet.
|
||||
|
||||
I found a few rack shelves, but the one I went for was a [simple 1U shelf](https://amzn.to/3U2wc8O) with a depth of 250mm - enough for the PS5 to sit on.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="IMG_6360.jpg" title="" >}}
|
||||
|
||||
It would certainly look a bit better with a proper fronting panel on it, but for my purposes this works just fine.

||||

||||
