Pros & Cons
Pros
Overall very happy with my purchase and looking at purchasing another one here soon. Nice quality paint and metal. Very pleased with the purchase.
A basic and right-sized rack for the modest needs of home network. They are extremely modular and come in different sizes depending on your needs. I use it for the personal network at my home to house my 24 port switch and my router, modem.
Also has a grounding nut on it to hook up a grounding wire to. It installs with the hose 16” in center studs.
Very sturdy and has a cross-brace on the top. Sturdy and easy to install.
My only complaint would it comes with 3 sets of screws/retainers for mounting your hardware into unit. I'm ocd, so having all the visible screws/ retainers matching would've been nice. They are deep enough to handle all but the deepest network gear.
Cons
This is not a drilled 10-32 rack it uses cage nuts. The track bended when * in one of the bolts. The drywall anchors aren't the right size.

Packaging/appearance
Packaging was great with the unit securely inside a heavy card box.
This was my first time mounting a wall rack of any kind and i found the startech to be very straightforward to install.
Competitiveness
To house my new 8 bay qnap nas.
I’ve loaded it down wel past the manufacturer specs and it’s holds like a champ.
I find startech's decision to only include 3u worth of mounting hardware with a 6u rack a little disappointing especially consi... Read More
Looking at the mounts the plastic anchors actually broke (never seen that before), and there was less than 10lbs on the rack ( ... Read More
