Been debating on what I want to do for my home environment as well as my web environment once I start colocating (leasing right now), and I'm leaning towards going all rackmount from now on. Supermicro servers look promising as they seem to be somewhat standard, ex: I can just buy any sata drive and any ram and put it in, vs dell where you have to buy from them and get anally raped.
One thing I'm wondering though, how good are they for replacement parts? Ex: a PSU fails, can I buy a new one from them? I was checking newegg.ca and they only seem to carry one PSU. Is there better Canadian sites for buying supermicro products?
Any other info I should know on these would be good too.
