Re: Two good articles to read

Well, I can lift my 515 without much problem. It's probably close to 100
lbs. The 41A weighs at least 200 lbs. I only guesstimate that since I can
deadlift 225 a few times and this, besides not being able to get a grip on
it, was DENSE and HEAVY! :)

With the old 520s and 0595s if you pulled the Power Supplies and the
Drives I could lift them in place no issue. With that stuff in it's a two
man lift for certain. The 2.5" drives though are SOO much lighter and on
the 41As now the 900W supplies are so small they add a spacer so they'll
fit!

Depends on the 41A. I have one 41A which is all SSD (except for the VIOS
lpars) and another one which is all spinning disks.
Waiting to install drives until after you rack them up is a good thing.
They can add weight.
