If in a rack, never add spaces between servers. Use blanks if you have empty
Us.  If not, your cooling will suffer.

I'm thinking this isnt a problem and they are probbaly designed for this but
just wanted to be sure. It is ok to stack these 1U servers one on top of the
other right? I just ask because the biggest vent is on the top of the thing.
I've been leaving 1U in between but I'm running out of space.

We had these things packed in, one on top of the other, with no issues
for many years.  We have more recently moved to a blade center, so I
don't know if the current generation is different somehow.

Yeah some of our other DLs have the sloped area, my 360s do not. However I just 
noticed on other servers we do have stacked that there is a gap of about 1/4 
so I guess that's enough to get the air out combined with the vents in the back.
