> and its biggest downsides are it's size and power, which are both not that big of issues since I've got a whole 44U rack for just a few servers and I don't get billed for my power usage. I was surprised to read this. I was looking in to colocation services (for less than a rack) and everywhere I spoke to, including Hurricane Electric, included a set number of amps (which I assume is at 120V?). Specially, HE offered me 2 amps with 7U of rack space. That seemed really low to me, just one of my 2U servers with a lot of hard drives idles at around 100W or just under 1A and easily exceeds 2A when it's really working (which admittedly is rare, it mostly idles). I didn't follow up to see how that is actually metered. I'd love to hear about other folks experiences with collocating - is this common?
