Sc846 vertical rack mount

[djeflig]

I bought a vertical rack mount for my supermicro sc846 Product Gallery Category Layout
I’m trying to find what’s the best way to attach it. Would the ears of the case hold the weight? If not, would the rails be an acceptable alternative?

Simply, get rails.

Well I have rails. Is it better to attach the case in the rack with those when It’s vertical?

Those vertical brackets are not meant for deep servers like that. Maybe 40cm depth max. I would highly recommend against it as the rails are not meant to take load in such a manner.

@svtkobra7 has a similar setup with 2 2U servers, some pics/details here: https://forums.servethehome.com/ind...alot-of-insulation-stuffing.29998/post-277943

Seems I misread the question.
