- pjdesno 5y agoIf you've got the data center for it. Otherwise it's great until you have to upgrade your AC, and punch a hole in the side of the building to get the new one brought in on a crane :-)
- dkdk8283 5y agoI built and ran a 1mw data center for about 7 years, it can be a headache but you can be ahead of the curve if you buy a DC that’s being vacated by someone moving to the cloud. I paid 400k to buy about 4m worth of equipment from the previous tenant. UPS, STS, busbar distribution, 3n paralleling generators and 20,000 gallons of diesel.
