I would suggest Mean Well MDR.  Those are din rail mount and are considered 'good enough' for mesa card.

For 5V you can use MDR-10-5  (2A) or  MDR-20-5 (3A) . You can go as high as MDR-40-5 (6A) if you really need that much power for the 5V bus.
For 24V  I would use MDR-40-24  (1.7A). Again, this is application specific and you can go as high as you want (ex: MDR-100-24  4A)

A notch above is the Mean Well NDR or EDR series, although more expensive.
