BUY TO OWN Hello DPers, I bet 80% of you would be renting dedicated servers from Datacenters... Well, Here's YOUR chance to OWN your OWN server! I have a few servers of the following config to give out: 1U Rackmount HP Server (HP DL360) Processor: DUAL INTEL XEON 2.8GHZ(2 processors), That's right, It has 2 CPUs Memory: 2048MB Hard Drive: 73GB 10K RPM SCSI, YES..!!---> SCSI HDDs CDROM: YES NIC: 2xGigabit (10/100/1000mb) broadcom integrated. PRICE: $649.95 THE SERVERS: http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/7193/dscn1713hi1.jpg Upon payment of the one-time fee, you then OWN the server! You just have to pay colo fees/month after that. The following colocation package is currently available: 1U Rackspace Unlimited DataTransfer 10Mbps port speed Free Unlimited Reboots & OS Re-Installs Price: $49.95/mo For a 100Mbps port and 3.3TB Datatransfer, a fee of $9.95/mo will be applicable If you do not want to colo with us, you can pay shipping fees and have the server shipped to any location you want from our datacenter in P.A, U.S.A* Such a CONFIGURATION would typically cost about $250/month at most datacenters if you consider renting it as a dedicated server! These machines would work perfectly fine for atleast 3 years. So let's calculate how much you're saving: DEDICATED SERVER: 3 years x $250/month = $9,000 for 3 years..!! BUY TO OWN: $649.95 + [3 years x $49.95/month] = $2449 for 3 years..!! You Save over $6,500! However, if used lightly the server would work fine for nearly the next 7 years! So just calculate your savings Carriers: Level3, Cogent, Global Crossing, PCCW Traceable IP: 66.96.192.1 Download Test File *conditions apply Some Other Servers I own: http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/3533/dscf0047xr5.jpg http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/1158/dscf0046vv0.jpg NOTE: You have to be colo'd with us for atleast 2 months before you can request to have your server shipped else where ELSE a handling charge of $100 will be levied.

Depends on what you're doing. But as almost all have 100 Mbps you on't get clogged. The server itself tells you how much you can ppl you can host, and if they run proxies a high power server like that is pretty good.
That 100Mbps may be not redundant and dedicated. And, most users don't have 24x7 power supply and others DC can provide. For small business, if webmaster want to host at home, they may not need a super computer. When their business do require a super computer, they may not want to host their big business at home.
Lol who said anything about hosting at home? This server is held in a datacenter and the OP sais it will be shipped to a datacenter. Lol this ain't for home users.
Thanks for clearing it up for him cabby @PowerExtreme: No Mate, I do not own the whole datacenter, but I have a mini Datacenter in their datacenter I've got a load of colo space and buy bandwidth from the datacenter's backbone
ok sounds good. but what exactly do we get if we wanted it to be shipped to us later i mean like is it a CPU type ?? coz when i searched on google its all above 2000 in price
These are the servers: http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/7193/dscn1713hi1.jpg they look very much like large dvd players If you want, it could be shipped to you whenever you want, but YOU must pay the shipping costs however, i would not suggest running such a machine at home..it's a headache having to keep it right under a fan all day long etc. it's better if you colo it to some datacenter
Servers are self-managed, but yes, you'll get basic, level 1 support from the datacenter technicians.
Systems have 2 years in production But they were used by a company from the finance industry and have seen extremely light use through their life! Systems are in excellent condition(which you'll see too when you get them) NOTE: There is a RAID card already in each of the systemsComes free with it
Oh, I missed the hardware upgrades question Its $10 support fee for upgrading hardware while its in the datacenter(the fee might be wiped if it is no major upgrade) You can have the parts shipped to us...or just pay us for them and we'll upgrade your systems All our hardware is purchased from NEWEGG
I'll take one...please send me an invoice thank you. I need it shipped to me I will be PMing you shipping details too
