    Hmm, I could probably do something with USB-based storage, if you wanted to send a USB HDD I could attach it to a KVM instance. I don't have any chassis' with a large number of bays floating around unfortunately.

    This is interesting: a fast SSD based KVM with high-capacity secondary storage.

    There isn't a huge amount of companies doing this at the moment, some which mostly try to sell you their own hardware itself.

    We have been testing out some options for it, however it will take quite a few months before we have a real process in place. Most likely it will be charged for yearly or longer to make it worth wild.

    Mostly due to needing a solid racking solution that can hold them in place and power everything up without taking a large amount of rack space up.
    If we see a lot of interest in this we might speed up the project a bit more for now it's just some in house testing mostly.

    Not at this time, we are just doing things in house first to make sure it's something that would be worth doing for clients. Don't want it to turn into a shit show and not be great for customers. :)

    If Canada interests you, I can do something in Ottawa or Toronto for fairly cheap.

    I wouldn't touch Delimiter (who?) with a 10 foot pole these days but the product was appealing.

    I lost three drives to these guys, I've been trying to get a response from support for almost a year now :( nothing...

    We would charge a $5/mo. for the hard drive ontop of our VPS price, so for instance our Egg plan would be $4.99 + $5 = $9.99

  • intovpsintovps Member, Host Rep

    This sounds like a fun project. Do you actually need 100Mbs unmetered?

    We could do it in our locations near to us: Cluj-Napoca (GTS DC) or Bucharest (M24 7 DC).

    In other locations, the cost of remote hands for installation would eat that yearly budget. :smiley:

  • lonealonea Member, Host Rep

    That's exactly my thought on colocating at such low price.

    Providers aren't making any money from this.

    We'll have to consider the switch port and the power port that is taking.

    Anyhow, what are you running on it? Anything fishy?

    Debian Buster 10, openvpn / wireguard traffic.

    Power Consumption is like: 250 mA (1.2W)

    What happened?

    Single USB with semi-stable driver to communicate with outside world, 1usb->2usb+lan chip eating more power than SoC, board design/components used that lead to constant power/stability issues, armv6 SoC that basically required specifically compiled linux distro. Rpi1 was great because it made whole SBC idea popular, it also was usable for what it was basically designed - education, but the board itself, IMO was terrible. Within very short time a lot of much better/more practical Chinese SBC-s like cubieboard appeared.
    I ordered both versions back then, and while they definitely were fun to play around with neither of them was ever used for anything practical.

    These are good and the price of 3,14€/ month for Pi colo is awsome:

    Austria even dropped its data retention law, so i am running a TOR relay there.
    Traffic in unmetred.

    recently also noticed this nice offer from @TNAHosting in Chicago

    from this thread: https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/159968/6gb-ram-400gb-hdd-5-m-l5420-dedi-19-m-1u-rpi-colo-chicago-il/p1

    Raspberry Pi Colocation
* Colocation of 1 Raspberry Pi at our Chicago, IL location
* Ability to include a 2.5" external hard drive
* 5TB Bandwidth @ 1Gbps
* 1 IPv4 Address
* $6/month

    the order link given in that post is https://tnahosting.net/billing/cart.php?a=add&pid=79&promocode=1I3I50GUWL

    Thanked by 1Janevski
  • MarkLuunMarkLuun Member

    This one is nice too. Its based in CZ:
    https://shop.finaltek.com/

    If you use my refferal link you directly support the TOR project, as i host more nodes with all incomming commisions:

    https://shop.finaltek.com/aff.php?aff=15

    Their price is about the same as the Easyserver price above.
    I think 35-40€ for a year of raspberry colo is a good value to see as standart. Fair in the sence that a traffic of more then 25 mbits in both directions is not used in most cases of diy boards. And power is about 7-10€ for the entire year.

    I still got some boards left that need a colo service in an european DC.
    They will be set up running relayed traffic so unmetered traffic would be great.
    Please send an offer if you can still do that.

    I would be interested in your offer. Is the bandwidth traffic unlimited?
