UK Colo Quote

Hi,

Can someone point me in the direction of UK colo provider that is reasonably cheap(ish)?

I'm looking at buying a HP ProLiant DL380 G5 off eBay and colo'ing it, server will only be used for running a small Plex server.

I'm led to believe the server has 2X 750W PSU's in (one for redundancy) and will be is 2U in size.

Would appreciate if any providers could give me a quote of somewhere to park this bad boy :)

Cheers

  • I wouldn't buy a DL380G5 these days, at least not for colo, I'd get something much more modern if you plan to keep it there for 1-2yrs what you save in power costs will probably make up for the initial upfront cost difference.

    Thanks for recommending :-).

    @Gerrard8 dedicated server will likely be cheaper than collocation due to power consumption of this kit.

  • As much as Id love to sell you colo, you really don't want to be coloing that box. Its a complete energy abuser. Easily over an amp. You can get much better servers on a budget that use alot less power. You can get a dual l5520 with 16gb of ram for less than £100. If you cant find one ill sell you one..
