There is one thing certain with all the uncertainty in the world we live in, the need for data centers and additional storage is strong and alive. With the advent of cloud computing, digital video, photos and music the great demand for lots of additional storage has grown. Here at SharkRack we recognize this and are trying to give our customers complete solutions. Look for major announcements in the coming months as we're getting ready to rollout new and exciting products for you to buy and make SharkRack your preferred source for racks and accessories.

Let's Get Green in the Data Center, And Save Some Money!
This month we would like to share some different methods that customers have used to save energy in their data centers.
1. In order to reduce energy bills avoid the mixing of hot air and cold air. The mixing of airs increases the overall temperature, thus reducing cooling efficiency. The ASHRAE Thermal Guideline states that a temperature of 68 - 77°F is the best inlet air temperature range for Class 1 servers. The cooling system in your data center should ensure that the inlet air temperature will keep the air constant within this range so that maximum energy efficiency is maintained.
2. Airflow can be improved with the use of a high-efficiency rack. SharkRack's innovative design provides a 72% air flow efficiency to cool your severs down. Replacing those old energy draining racks with new SharkRack energy-conscious racks allow lower energy costs as a result.
