Did see an article some years ago where a set of mobos were installed in a ikea
drawer unit. The builder installed a single high-end PSU and powered all the mo-bos
from the single PSU with some jumpers on the secondary mo-bo's.
perhaps you could do similar? One PSU (or two in redundant failover) must be more
effective than mains to every rack element...
