We're currently in the process of getting ready to put our virtualized environment in a Colo and we're looking into replicating some of our more mission critical VM's to another colo in a different geographical location. We'd either use VMware Site Recovery Manager or Veeam Backup & Replication. We know that iland offers a pretty neat and cost effective solution that basically meets our needs. We can replicate a few...

I am looking for a new supplier for colocation related stuff like shelfs, powercables, tyraps, etc etc. A shop which has most of the items which come in handy when you are in a datcenter. Location does not really matter if they can ship :-) Let me know where you get your stuff. Thanks !!

RAM Prices
Published (2009-11-09 22:14:00)
@Dougy I think a lot of manufacturers have decreased production as a result of the recent economic climate. Now that things are beginning to pick up again, and people are buying hardware again, there is a shortage of components so the prices go up.

I'll make a review in a month maybe sooner to update the WHT...

For SATA, we have been using Areca cards in our storage arrays for years, and they have done very well. For SAS, we use the Adaptec 5XXX series. The 4-port model is the 5405.

They probably figure that managed services have a higher profit margin, which they normally do, so they want a bigger piece of that pie.

I can only speak from experience as I've always had cabinets in Medford, Boston and Somerville.
If you have your own admin(s) and they need 24/7 access a full cabinet is all you can purchase in the Boston market to obtain 24/7 access. So you would require to purchase 2 cabinets in which you could loose money than going with someone already established.
1.) I have a thing for Internap, ...

For about $69/month you can get colocation in Montreal with 1000GB - 2000GB bandwidth with providers like iWeb and Netelligent who have been in the business for a while. It all depends on what type of market you're targeting, if you're targeting Corporates then 50GB bandwidth may pass but the $49/month rate would be a little suspicious. If you're targeting the general population then ...

Well, you are comparing a provider's network to that of networks of individual carriers.
Ultimately the most important thing first and foremost in your network is to have carrier redundancy. Under no circumstances would I ever personally place any equipment in a facility that only has connectivity from a single carrier.
The next thing to look at is what redundancy is within the network. Is...

The SAS/SFF is not yet available in sizes larger than 146GB @15k.
The latest news, as of a couple of weeks ago, was entry into the market by a couple of other vendors at 146/15K. So, maybe next year.

Hiyall,
I am totally lost as to how to proceed with collocation say somewhere in usa ? Since i am based in Canada, and dell.com wont accept orders from me..... i did end up buying a server and get it shipped here and than later ship it across border and pay hefty fees for that to just get server collocated.
How do you guys do it ? Where you get your parts( ) from ?

Dear all,
I need to colocate a server, and then order two E1 links to it (to be more precise, it's one link and one backup). Both the colocation DC and the link's destination will be in NY metro area. The link will be delivered via MPLS.
Please, could you help me to clarify the following points:
1) How much, very roughly, should an MPLS E1(+backup) cost in NY metro?
2) I ...

I saw it as well on Monday, both the DC and their HQ and it was impressive. Jordan and crew certainly made sure that no detail is overlooked. If anyone is in the area, I'd recommend paying them a visit. Besides, their free gourmet lunch is an added bonus.
