No idea about them, but that is a good price for a 12u cabinet.

The only thing you've gotta watch out for with that rack is the depth. Wall-mount racks are normally used for switches or audio equipment and server cases are often a bit too deep to fit into them (and a lot of the time too heavy for the mounts to support).

That rack you picked should fit them fine:

According to that site it's deep enough.

That depends on two things.

One, on the fans they used in that cabinet, since that's all it's got to keep the air moving. If noise isn't an issue then worst case all you'll have to do is install some high powered fans in there.

Two, on the hardware you're running. If they are single-CPU servers they'll probably be ok, but if they're dual-sockets with quad cores, or even worse, 4 opterons each, they'll most likely cook themselves.
