Hey all,

I'm looking to build a small half rack server set in my house and was wondering if there were any tools that let me build out a solution? I'm worried I'm going to forget something and just wanted it all listed out as I think of things.

Yeah I can probably build it out and keep track of it in Obsidian or Excel or something, I was just curious if there were server builder tools like there are PC builder tools?

I mainly want to make sure I get a rack big enough for the few pieces I want to put in it as well as I want to try to calculate the power draw and BTU output which I imagine will be pretty minimal. I just would like hard numbers to know for sure.

Thanks!
