I used to do colo, but surprisingly it’s usually a better deal to pay monthly for an unmanaged server, with standard hardware replacement warranty.

- postpawl 5y agoI’m interested to see what breaks first. I’m mainly hoping it’s not the switch or the power supply.
- LeoPanthera 5y agoThis is only true if you don't need a lot of storage. Stuffing a few U full of hard disks is still cheaper.
- gruez 5y agoHow much storage are we talking about? Hezner storage servers are pretty cost effective.
- xur17 5y agoAre there any providers similar to Hetzner that are a bit closer to the US? I have a view vps instances with them, but the high latency is a major bummer.
- LeoPanthera 5y agoWell there's rsync.net but they're something like 5x more expensive.
- LeoPanthera 5y agoWell the multi-TB range, but Hetzner has no servers, or competition, in the USA as far as I can tell.
