I am in the process of building a custom 5U rack mount case and thought another set of eyes on the dimensions would be good.

Please check my dimensions:

L x W x H
698mm x 448mm x 221mm
27.480314961" x 17.637795276" x 8.7007874016"

448mm for the width is on the high side but I want to have as much space for cards as possible.
Max width from Wikipedia is 450.85 mm (17.75 inches)

Was originally going to use sliding rails but that cut into the width so I'm going with these stationary rails instead:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816323006

...or will search for something cheaper later.

Max height for 5U is 221.463mm (8.719") I believe. Cut a little off to be on the safe side at an even 221mm (8.7007874016").

Any suggestions are appreciated!
