Hi All,
I'm planning on grabbing one of supermicro's 2 inodes in 1u servers.
I was going to use 49pence but after calling them today they said they don't allow 1U to have 2 ethernet connections. Very frustrating. So I'm hoping someone will be able to tell me what datacentres near Bristol will allow this.


Thanks

Lyle

Why ?
Uses twice the power
Generates twice the heat
Has half the life expectancy
Needs twice the network connectivity
and 50% of the Colo providers wont touch them

So you're much better off buying 2 decent 1u servers...

Bristol based geek checking in here - Closest DC will be an EasyNet POP, with the expected arm, leg, and first born cost associated.
Closest reasonably priced DC? BlueSquare in Maidenhead, then probably Enta in Telford, and then london DC's, and then Manchester IFL.
