Best 1U or 2U Server Case

[PlenumRated]

Hello, I am looking for the best rackmount case. After the pfSense update about their new architecture I am unable to use my Watchguard x700. I want to get/build a rack mount unit for pfsense or ipfire. 

 

 

Thanks,

 

Matthew

This is the company that has sponsored some LTT Videos: http://www.istarusa.com/en/istarusa/ Im not sure on pricing or anything, but its a place to look. Im guessing expensive. But you might find a used one on ebay I would think. OR you can look for used hardware on ebay like an older server or something bare bones you might be able to use.

iStarusa has some cheap options. My pfsense box currently lives in a NORCO RPC-230. Not the best case, but no real complains. Haven't found a 1u setup I liked since I had to drop the Alix platform (pc engines).

I know SuperMicro have some really nice short depth 1U appliance chassis.

My pfsense box lives in a Rosewill 2U Server Chassis RSV-2600 works well and matches the looks of my 4u server case
