Hi @ITJamie,

although I don't really dislike your idea: Have you seen the link in the device section (upper left)? There's a row named "Rack" which provides two links: One textual link to open the rack and one graphical link to open the rack and highlight the device you came from. Seems to be sufficient to me.

When on a mobile device its quite a jump around to find that field. While looking at the rack view on a device page it would be useful to be able to quickly see what rack it is in without having to find another box entirely.

I believe the following commit is all that would be needed to complete this

https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/compare/main...ITJamie:netbox:add-rackname-to-device-rack-view

it adds the same block that exists on elevations view (netbox/templates/dcim/rack_elevation_list.html)

if this is acceptable i can create and link the pr to this issue
