Globix is probably the closest Colocation Center for me, a well known name and good backbone/peering points. But They're giving me a Price Quote of 1Mbps Half the Cabinet for 1K, is that even a good price?

They don't do less than Half the Cabinet :(

Oh I'm talking about the Globix Data Center In Downtown Mahattan, that's the closest place to me(4 blocks), It looks pretty big, but.....kinda cost alot. Don't u guys think so?

thats too much, definitely

Sounds expensive... very expensive. However, you pay for quality. What type of bandwidth? Do they provide any equipment?

The Actual Price is 875 per 1 Mbps and Half Cabinet.

No Equipment, Only Half The lock Cabinet, Power, and the Ethernet Plug you need (capped bandwidth of course)

875 per 1 Mbps -> :eek: OMFG

Unless they are providing a switch and servers for you to fill that half cabinet with thats a ****ty deal for NYC. globix is not exactly anything special. Their peering is good but not great. You do get a pretty badge thou.

Well Globix giving me half da Cabinet That's 20 U , Each addidtional 1Mbps will cost 300, Price will go down if I get like 40 Mbps or more ... but still too much.

The Only Good thing about Globix is that...it's 4 blocks away from me! :)

but I rather walk 20 blocks to 25 broadway and save myself some big bucks

I send you the Email already. I only got One PM from you, but doesn't matter, check your Email

Thanks

You ain't seen nothin'.

A quote I got from Inflow (last year) was approx. $1500/mbps.

Havenco is $1500/mbit as well. But that is a bit understandable since they are in the middle of the ocean.

Since it's only four blocks away from you, did you get a chance to tour it?
I've seen a few centers. But, that one makes me drool.

I don't even want to go "tour" after I see the "875" word on my email and "listen" to the same thing over the phone.

that price can get me a Full T1 to my location already PLUS I got a big ass space unused how many u's are there? I think I can fit 500 Us with just my spare space!

i would tend to agree for the most part..

GPS-Chicken: Thinking of setting up in the garage? j/k :D

Can't , my IS300 took my garage.....no space for anything else :P

I manage a serve in Globix DC in NYV for a customer. General Globix staff is okay, the NOC crew is great though! I don't pay the bill on that server so I can't say much about price. But connectivity and peering is great. Lately they have had some peering issues with Level3 at times.
