N. Cali colocation for a tower server.
Are there any colocation providers that would work for a mid or full tower case? I'm an hour north of SF and willing to drive a few hours if necessary.
I gotta be honest I'm a total noob when it comes to any of this. Looking around for a colo service obviously everything is geared towards businesses and it's quite intimidating for someone just doing it as a hobby.
I've been hosting a plex server on a dedi using google drive as the storage but obviously that's gone now so I was looking to move to a local server. I had originally planed to have the server set up at one of my friends house since he was the only one that had access to a 1gb/1gb fiber line but now that's looking like it's not going to be an option.

If you can not find one near you in California you can always ship it to a colocation center else where. In California Pychz has like 3 data cents right around Silicon Valley and the LA one takes colocation services which you can ask about midsized tower - if you have not already built the mid tower and can instead use 1U/2U/4U server since it seems like a lot of cheap colocation services are in northeast US or midwest.
