Dave (npub1rcn…dw4h) Adam Curry :pci: :pc2blue: (npub1fmx…wp74) I just finished listening to the last episode... at the end you were talking about VM costs and upsizing the VM.
I've got a Dell r720XDS with 12 4TB SAS drives in a RAID-10 configuration. 96GB RAM, dual 10 core Xeon processors and dual 1000k power supplies. Runs great, clean and came out of a datacenter.
Datacenter costs is $160 per month in a Tier-3 center.
Looking to get $700 for the server. Let me know if you want to jump to bare metal!
