getting the drives into the rack on the rails.
Harbor Freight sells a nice hydraulic lift table for under $200 that
I have found very useful for that sort of thing. It doesn't go up
very high (like for the top of a rack), but I used it with some wood
blocks to lift a DEC ES45 Alpha system into a rack by myself.
