Hello,

Im seriously fed up with eservers.biz & dv2 for the information they are providing me with server setup times (this will be posted in another thread shortly).

Now Im looking into colocation. I would like to know some wholesalers in North America that offer good rates. We would be buying around 5 servers initially. All dual processor machines and all to go into Colo4dallas (more likely)

for colo... I'd say priority colo, I don't have a server with them, but I have had alot of experince with him...


Myles is a great guy, and we see eye to eye on alot of issues....

n/p will you let us know in this thread who you go with ?

Here's one I've been looking into: http://interpromicro.com/

http://8anet.com

I never used, but I hear good things about them.

Why not lease them all from dell.com? It could be better than putting up allot of money upfront.

Dell.com do not allow you to lease it unless you live in USA :(

;) I believe I already gave you some suggestions on ICQ.

If you give me a shout i can refer you to some relatively reliable hardware places. I get duds from them often enough, but when buying hardware, i kind of expect to get duds unfortunatly (like my last motherboard :bawling: ). The places we use have quite competitive pricing, and are phone friendly (i absolutly refuse to order any quantity of equipment from some faceless webpage that is typically unprofessional, and the same as every other hardware site, and you never know if your shipment will arrive, if it's even been seen, etc.).

But if you do want info, please, be sure to tell them i sent you, might get you an extra discount, and it'll let them know that im thinking about them :blush: gotta love some of them guys :D.

supermicro servers from acmemicro.com
Havent had any problems yet.

yes, agree - they are good.
we'll order 3rd server from interpromicro.com soon.

Why not just buy a complete server from Dell, it will cause less headaches and you can get great support for it in case there are issues.
