>I saw that rack mount makes things cost significantly more.
there's a logical reason for this though. it's a pretty safe assumption that you're in a larger facility if you're rack mounting. a lot of rack mount chasis come with features like dual PSUs and other redundant features. redundancy does cost.
>put a rack in the basement or a utlity room
They make enclosures[0] that are smaller than a full rack, but allow for rack mounting equipment. you can then just shove this enclosure on a shelf or wherever. much more convenient than a full on server rack.
