Colo recommendations
Hello,
I have a Mac Mini I am looking to colocate - UK/NL location is preferred but all of Europe considered.
1Gb port with a minimum of 10TB transfer is essential, but 20TB+/unmetered would be much preferred.
I'd need to ship the hardware and have it set up by the host so some level of remote hands/KVM will be necessary.
Looking at the specs it seems the Mac Mini draws very little power (7W idle, 50W max) so I would think even the 0.3A I have seen offered on most 'budget' 1U offerings would be sufficient?
Any recommendations appreciated!
Cheers
Thanked by 1c1vhosting

It's not a datacenter: https://www.google.com/maps?q=41.668561,12.503751
No one knows. Streetview shows residential building. c1vhosting never shared any pictures / denied / confirmed shit.
Yet you can read it's "state of the art datacenter" / Tier-3 DC that lost power yesterday - seems like single line. Then was DDOSed and 195781587178 other stories. Don't even ask about uptime :-)
If you want to send stuff there to idk, have some hobby project then it probably works. Serious stuff? Uhmm no.
yea that looks a bit residential indeed.
then again, looks can be deceptive; from outside our place looks like this
There's also big ISP/Telco DCs in the same building. This is the building all sea fiber from Stockholm terminates to.
Ok, good to hear.
Stuff like additional DNS servers don't require 99.9999% uptime, those are designed to fail over. 99.99% is enough. That's auto-failover.
@PulsedMedia is supermarket!? :O
Can I get groceries with my next order?

Same building yea. There's a good selection of beer, including craft beer i think
Lots of traffic on the small public area of the building adds some added security, plenty of eyes around 24/7. Those people don't have access anywhere near the DCs, even if they knew DCs were in that building.
Oh it's very large building, the very last segment on left you see on that photo is still part of the building. Goes underground too.

@c1vhosting thats really cheap. Is it possible to send my mini pc to you for colocation for that cheap price ?
Absolutely, write me in DM to arrange everything
Anyone have any reviews of C1vhosting? Doesn't seem to be much positive chatter on LET.
Hi,
We can do that. The cons will be the energy price, but is a exotic location in Republic of Moldova.
We own the datacenter, hardware and network.

Apart from random bashing comments, i failed at quick glance to find decent feedback. Random comments from unknowns (to me) are not exactly the most reliable source ...

the colo may be cheap, but good luck ever getting your hardware back.
Interesting! Nice looking building though
Vienna colo this cheap? Been looking for something similar for ages, might open a ticket
Just be certain you have read and understood the "limitations"/restrictions in the post, that make it possible to offer it at this price.
Yup, saw them, thanks. I haven't got any hardware yet and unless i massively screw up, it should be fine.
I am happy to advise on hardware configurations as well. Plus i do have some things in inventory, that would allow for budget friendly deals...
Kitchen.
Nah... you want numbers, I agree.
Over a period of 1 month, the VPS I have with him has 7% of packet loss. Measured from a well respected VPS provider in Europe that hardly has any downtime or network issues.
Of that, there is one period of 10+ hours of complete downtime (on the 25th). When I discard that period of time, it still leaves me with around 3% of packet loss.
Have you had any experience to affirm it?
Just arrange shipping and you’re ok..
