Not sure about that Adam, but we had a problem with failed air-conditioning at a
company I was at 3 years ago. We were running a 530 2-way with expansion rack
and 4 of the old white towers full of disk. We also had the LAN and WAN
equipment in the room and pushed 100+ for most of the day and nothing happened.
Maintenance DID bring some BIG fans to suck the hot air out of the room but it
was still miserable. Not suggesting any try this, just reporting what we had.
