really? I actually have a customer that wants me to rent them some space and manage their stuff in mountain view, and I'm actively looking in Santa Clara for myself. (In both cases, we're talking small fry, under 10kw.)
- krobertson 14y agoI toured Layer42's Mountain View facility and it looked pretty good. Don't remember exactly what the power prices were, but it was comparable to Sacramento. I stuck with Sacramento since it was closer.
- lsc 14y agohuh. I had a bunch of stuff in heraklesdata in sacramento. They quoted 150% of the 20a 120v circuit price for 30a 208v. I told the guy in the rack next to me (who ended up doing better than I did) and he wanted me to quit explaining power to the salesguys; this guy's theory is that one of the bizdev folks didn't know how to calculate power from amps and volts. It's pretty funny; here in santa clara, people charge about twice (per amp) for 208v as 120v. thus, I end up just getting a whole bunch of 20a 120v circuits. It's silly, but eh, watts are what I actually want. (208v is slightly more efficient; but an amp of 208v is, well, 208 watts, and two amps of 120v is 240 watts... 208v is not /that/ much more efficient.)
