Looking for a co-location host
I see some sites, offing like 30 Gigs of Bandwidth for like 14 bucks USD per month.
I cannot find a good co-location place to put my hardware, where I can do that, and make any money.
Anyone know of a good place to put a Rack, either a full rack, or a single server where I can get like 2000 to 3000Gigs of Bandwidth, so I can make our own 30+ gig package hosting accounts??
I've searched lots of places, but cannot find a good way to do it, I have NO IDEA how these guys do it.
Thank you,
RJ

Well, first thing you have to know is they oversell to the CORE. 2-3000GB is about 10 megs. To colocate, you'll need rackspace and bandwidth. a 10 meg feed would cost you anywhere between 500-1000 depending on who you pick. I'll recommend you try some of the HE reseller to colocate your hardware.

You have to remember that a lot of these companies are very big and probably have hundreds of servers in racks. This means that they're getting a major discount due to the bulk orders they place.
