Many places offer competent remote hands services, to replace fans/hard drives/memory if and when such things fail.

I suppose... I'd prefer to do it myself, but I could maybe acquiesce to that. Know any accepting BTC?

(Or Inaba, does yours offer remote hands?)

What sort of maintenance are you expecting? Is this for bitcoin rigs or actual servers?

Oh, actual servers, probably singular. It's not a trust issue, I'd just rather be close enough that traveling on short notice would be feasible. (If my server goes down due to hardware failure or whatnot, I don't want to have to pay exorbitant prices for a ticket on the soonest plane to Missouri.)

You could mail the server(s) if you wanted?

Yeah, but I can't ask you to do maintenance and the like. I'm in Oregon, which I'm afraid isn't a particularly popular location for colo data centers. There are some in Portland for which I can certainly convert BTC to USD; I just want to support the Bitcoin economy when at all possible.

Located in sunny Kansas City, MO. Full DC facilities, anything from a shared rack, locked rack or a private suite. 120v, 220v and 3ph power. We have American Fiber Systems, Cogent and Level 3 (via United Fiber Systems) as available providers and you can either use my pooled bandwidth or contract with one of them directly.

haha i know exactly what data center you are talking about! Have 2 rigs there, hit me up if you think you can get me a better deal!.

Thanks

Meh, the airplane tickets would cost me more than the colocation. Thanks for the offer nonetheless.

Where are you located? I'm sure you could find someone nearby to take the BTC for you and convert to fiat every month and pay the bill for you, if you feel that that is necessary. Near me is a Tier IV DC located right on the transit route between Chicago and Atlanta, if that interests you.

I will colocate your server(s) for BTC. Depends on what you're looking to colocate

Location? Facilities?

Is there a server colocation provider that accepts Bitcoins? I couldn't find one on the Trade page or with Google, but if anyone does offer colocation services I'd be interested...
