Plan a DeskPi RackMate T1 (8U)
The planner below is set to the DeskPi RackMate T1, 8U. Search your devices to place them.
Most mini PCs, Macs, modems and small switches can't go in a rack on their own. When you add one, the planner puts it in a rack mount made to fit that exact device, from 3D Rack Mounts. Gear that already has rack ears goes straight in.

Tap an open slot to choose where the next item goes. Drag an item to move it (on a phone, press and hold first). Tap it to remove it.
What fits in 8U
The DeskPi RackMate T1 gives you 8U of 10 inch rack space: 8 items that are 1U tall, or any mix that adds up to 8U. Gear with its own 10 inch rack ears goes straight in; anything else needs a mount, and the planner shows which.
Example builds that fit
- Proxmox mini PC cluster in an 8U 10 inch rack
- Mac mini, Mac Studio and DGX Spark in an 8U 10 inch rack
- Home network and smart home in a 6U 10 inch rack

How it works
- Pick a rack. 10" mini racks (DeskPi, GeeekPi, Lab Rax and similar) or a standard 19" rack, at the height you have.
- Add your gear. Search a device to place it. Gear that already has rack ears, like UniFi and Netgear switches, Synology RackStations, UPS units and PDUs, is in the list too and goes in as rack-ready.
- See what's missing. Anything without ears shows as "needs a mount", with a mount you can buy for it.
- Share it. The link holds the whole layout, so a build can be posted, compared or finished later.
