Hi all,

I have a homelab with 1 server (Dell R620) and 1 switch (TP-Link 8 port 1 Gbps) at the moment. I'm looking to add 2 more servers (Dell R630) and 1 more switch (TP-Link 8 port 10Gbps). Switches won't fit the standard racks for servers, so not worried about them.

I have no knowledge of racks.

What all do I need to know about racks before deciding what to buy.

I have the below link which I think might be fine.
