We got out first Rack mounted server (PE750) without rails. We're concerned there is too much cantilever load to support it with the standard flange. Will "RAILS" really help with the catelever load issue?

Thanks for the input.

Very much so. The weight is distributed along the length of the rails. Very few rack-mounted servers are intended to hang without them.
