After much procrastination and a spare bedroom full of computers, I finally bought some shelving. I originally bought some chrome wire rack shelving that was 72" tall and 36" wide but it was 18" deep and it wan't deep enough. I also had to buy extra wire rack "placemats" so computers could be pushed into place. This does get expensive pretty quickly especially if you buy deeper ones.
I ended up buying three of these "garage racks": http://www.homedepot.ca/product/industrial-strength-welded-storage-rack-with-wire-deck/925733 because they were'nt too expensive and they are 24" deep and the width of two separate shelves. They do have a wire grid on each shelf, which isn't good for computer placement but I've cut some old carpet I had to place on top of the shelves so the computers will sit on that instead of the grids. I haven't yet organized everything but I look forward to that hopefully over the next few days.
I'll take some pics when I'm done but does anyone have any advise on how to organize them? I was thinking Manufacturer then date. Does anyone have any pics they have to share to illustrate how you organized yours? I'd like to build in some power bars and have them runnable in place as well. Did you create any signage?
Thanks for any thoughts on this.
