Managed and unmanaged dedicated hosting on Front St - come inside

Throwing this out there if anyone is interested. A colleague has recently invested some time and money into a couple of chassis at our beloved Front Street DC. Specs are below:

2 HP Bladesystem C7000 Enclosure with 32 blades in total ( 22 blades with 48 GB RAM each and 10 blades with 192 GB RAM each)
IBM SAN storage with 132 TB
Juniper Networks SRX3600 Chassis and corresponding processing cards.
1 Gig Internet (Up to 10TB monthly or unlimited if you have the need)


I'm thinking of taking 10 blades for a couple of projects. If anyone is interested, can probably get a fairly good discount on standalone servers. Don't have pricing or further details until next week but I'd expect it to be very competitive.

Shoot me a PM or post in here if you have any interest. This is unmanaged or managed. Up to you.

All hardware is at 151 Front Street which for those of you in the know is one of Canada's most well regarded DC.

Bit of an update on this if anyone cares :)

The above fell through but I am acquiring 5 mid-range boxes with the following spec.
1245v2 4core/8threads, 3x300GB SSD, 32Gigs ECC RAM, 16IPs

Plus 5 higher range Xeon E5-1650v2 (6/12t), 64Gigs ECC, 12TB, 256IPs

Can be loaded and carved up with ESXi, Xen or HyperV. If anyone wants a couple then let me know otherwise they all go onto projects eventually.

Think I'll go start my blog now.. Lol...
