      The more you look at it, this more shitty it is.

      Special mention for the U “scale”. Numbers are in order, so… good job I guess.

        The numbers increment inconsistently while the scale itself has regular notches. Not that good of a job if we’re being perfectly honest.

          Just a few months ago it wouldn’t have been able to ensure those numbers were even in the correct order consistently.

            🤷

            +Look at the cables. They make no sense. Then there is the hot air arrow pointing into the computers, that is mingling with the cold air. It will never be coherent.

        Purple and teal are in the diagram but missing from the legend, while red is in the legend but not in the diagram. The cable management entry in the legend is pointless.

        The airflow portion is odd, since the heat should be extracted from higher up?

    Q: What if the servers are some 4U beasts with 36x 3.5" drives each?

    A: On top of the UPS, because you don’t get paid enough for the hazard involved in lifting them higher.

    Sidenote: More than once, for shorter surveys/projects/setups, I’ve built what we refer to as a doodlebugger-pile. You just stack it on the floor, and secure it with some two-by-fours and screws. Because finding a deep enough rack and manhandling it up multiple decks on a ship is fucking awful. If it’s secure enough to not slide during heavy seas, it’s good enough for seismic.

      What do you mean? Don’t you have cables that go nowhere in your servers, and those have more network ports than a patch panel and cabling in your TOR and “network” that goes nowhere?

      I feel I just charge op for making me watch this atrocity.

    I prefer network in the middle. When you’re running 3-5 cables per host, it helps keep the cable density managable.

    Labeling and Organizing

    …okay?

    There’s no red power cable for the Legend and the Legend doesn’t correlate with the color coding…

    It’s getting more precise, but it fundamentally doesn’t know what it’s doing.

    Ah, the magical switches and servers whose rack mounts allow for cables to be routed behind/beside them…

    AI slop is sloppy
