Abstract
A rack-wall computing and/or data storage system includes computing and/or storage devices mounted in enclosures; the enclosures are also mounted in one or more device chassis that fit into one or more vertical slots of an open-faced mounting structure. The mounting structure is free of vertical or horizontal supports on a front side, which allows for a greater density of enclosures (and therefore computing or storage devices) to be mounted in a given volume of space, as compared to conventional racks that include vertical supports at repeating intervals (e.g., every 24 inches). Also, a given device chassis can be extracted from the mounting structure, via the open front face, using a rail system, wherein in the extracted position, the enclosures are accessible for servicing on at least two sides (e.g., front and back).
