Lower the better.
1st: warm air accumulates at top
2nd: blade enclosure can weight around 300kg when fully populated and with that in mind, recommendation is to put the heaviest items at the bottom of the rack

Also look at power requirements to supply the correct power for the blade enclosure.

If you do not have sufficient AirCon, you may need to purchase a rack which contains enclosed AirCon.
