Wanted - 20-30TB RAID storage

doughmanesdoughmanes Member
edited March 2015 in Requests

CPU: L5520 / L5xxx series (if you're a VPS provider, an old VPS node is fine with me. Not looking for E3 series CPUs)

RAM: 32GB - 72GB (feel free to adjust down lower for budget)

Hard disks: 5x6TB SAS2 similar to OVH or what you can do such as 8x4TB, 10x3TB or 12x3TB

RAID: yes, Adaptec / LSI is fine.

Network: 50TB on 1Gbps port.

Location: US is fine (central/east coast), would need to do network checks if EU such as NL.

IPMI: need a public, non-VPN IPMI. If an IP from the /29 is used from this, that's OK.

IPs: /29

Budget: $200 - $300. I'm open to increasing my budget if you can sell me on it.

    Very bad idea.

    Why not use OVH?

    Got an offer too? Seems like I posted in a request area and I'm getting a bunch of replies from non-providers.

    I can get you something great running @ SwiftNode - here is a teaser of the specs:

    Dual Intel Xeon X5650 Hex Cores - 24x 2.66Ghz

    32GB DDR3-1333 ECC Registered RAM (only 8GB and 16GB DIMMs in use, no cheap 4gb throwaways)

    8 x 4TB SATA3 Enterprise/RAID Edition 7,200RPM HDD

    Hardware RAID Controller w/ BBU (RAID0,1,5,6,10)

    2U Chassis - 8x Hot-Swap Drive Bays

    50TB Monthly Public Transfer (Unlimited Incoming Transfer)

    1Gbps Public Network Port (Upgradeable to 2Gbps Public Capacity)

    1Gbps Private Network Port

    Private VLAN

    /29 IPv4 Allocation - 5 Usable IPs

    /64 IPv6 Allocation - Millions of IPs

    IPMI w/ KVM Over IP & Virtual Media (on public IP as requested)

    Lets talk so I can make sure everything fits and works for your requirements.

    Can you send me a PM instead? I don't use/have Skype. I ditched it after the whole Microsoft takeover.

    I know there's a lot of decent offers in this thread, and I'd definitely recommend going with SwiftNode if you get a good price on it, but thought I'd leave Ovh storage server links here in case you didn't know abotu them:

    I'm giving the small guys a chance, like in my post I stated don't really care if an old VPS node. Hosting companies have spare hardware all the time, spare disks. I pretty much know what I want and have a reasonable budget. OVH is appealing but not really too eager to have hardware up in Canada

    Fair enough. I just figured when you're dealing with 20-30TB worth of storage, you'd want something at least somewhat known to be reliable. As for Canada, I honestly don't think it makes that much of a difference from anywhere in the US. Better than EU anyways.
