New data center opening.

I would like some advice on reselling on a cobalt raq4 server.

I want to offer 30 MB of space and 3 GB of transfer for a price of

$40 a year (Prepaid).

$4 a month x 12 months= $48

$48 – $8 (for 2 months free)= $40

We will be installing 10 units of these servers in the months ahead and would like some advice on the price.

Please e-mail me or post your opinoins.

All advice is greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Thomas

well.. whats the DC like ?

... sounds like you will be losing a lot of its a good DC and you only plan on running 10 raq's

Hi there UH-Matt, we are going to be located in Montréal Quebec, along with Ottawa Ontario. We will have multiple, redundant OC3 and DS3 connections through Sprint, Group Telecom, UUNet.we will add more servers later on but mostly we want to fill the servers one at a time.

In your opinion, is the price too high, too low, or OK?

Techservers,

The RaQ 4 (450mhz AMD) may be a little underpowered and overpriced if you intend to use it to offer a lot of accounts in today's context. Of course, it will work fine if you offer hosting for static sites then you could reach the 200 sites limit per server.

I had a RaQ 4 for one of my sites and although I like it, but after having to move to a 1ghz Celeron, I could feel the difference in speed and even more so since I offered downloads.

The prices looks alright but how many clients you intend to put in a server ?

If you have not actually purchase the servers, you might want to look at the current offerings for servers.

Like I say, I like the RaQ but it is very much 1999 news.

Like eddy2099 I also think you should go with Intel Celeron/Pentium or atleast a AMD with some good control panel like Cpanel/Plesk.
