    The plan is to offer more customization starting with the next shipment. We'll be bringing in 1TB/4TB HDDs and 120GB/500GB/1TB SSDs, plus doing away with 8 GB/16 GB/32 GB RAM models.

    I'd buy 1, with an additional 8GB of ram in there and an ssd instead.

    He does on the 1230s ;) 256 is same price just with $10 setup fee.

    $49 for an E3-1230 with 16GB ram and 256GB SSD or 2TB not in colocrossing and with a max of $10 setup thats a good deal

    How much monthly public transfer is included with each of these, amount of IPs, and port speed? Which servers have IPMI and which do not have that capability (I ask because some of the older L5520's may not). Do you provide 24x7 support? Brand of HDD's (age - are they used? enterprise drives?) Lastly, what type of network carriers are in your bandwidth mix?

    These are important factors to consider which can be deal breakers to some prospects.

    personally i would prefer a good fast cpu and fairly new. so the E3, the rest are slow and some lack modern features like AES support etc

    Good point. There are certain features the newer lineups support. We do supplement our older lineup already with E3-1230 v2's, but we're hoping to launch some E3-1231 v3's or similar (waiting to see what happens with the v5's) too.
