Can an Empty drive wall be used for the window? Or do you need a "window wall"?

Andy
 
Andy,

You can use an empty drive wall for a window, but you must make a perspex window to replace the air box cover, otherwise it's dangerous. You use the air box cover as a template to get the screw holes in the right places.

Needless to say it will look better with a 20 drive wall than a 10 drive wall.
 
Andy,

Forgot to say, you need the finishing touch...

Remove one of the halon access plates on the roof and feed through a couple of mains powered party light chains. Fix them all round the roof, one chain going clockwise and the other anticlockwise, using the white cable tie brackets.

It looks really cool during computer room tours, especially if you get blue ones, and double especially if they have a setting for slow up and down glow.
