Ask Rackmount Ranger: How Do I get Slide Rails for My Dell PowerEdge 4600 Server
Q: I have a Dell PowerEdge 4600 server. I want to mount it to my rack with slide rails. Do you have rails I can purchase?

A: The best solution is to contact your Dell dealer and purchase the rails that are designed to go with the server. They should fit in any standard rack, and will eliminate the chance of damaging the server by trying to attach a third party rail.
If this is not a viable option, we can supply Accuride slide rails, but would require some advice (from Dell or from Accuride, if they have it) as to which slide would be appropriate. However, you would have to accept the liability for putting third party slides on the server.
All in all, the best idea is to contact your Dell supplier.
