That's usually the catch, but for $60 hard drives I'll gladly let them keep them after a year of use if it saves me an extra $60/month.

We can do one-time fees on the hardware upgrades instead of a monthly fee. The prices on the one-time fees typically aren't too far off of the actual hardware cost.
Depending on what you are wanting to install, we may be willing to work with hardware that is shipped in. We typically don't allow it, simply because we aren't setup to send/receive equipment from customers. If we agree to it, it would definitely involve forfeiting ownership.

Ahhh @bcarlsonmedia, it just isn't you with slowness on the test files.
Unsure if @SilverKnightTech has other competing traffic on that mirrors domain or not.
VegasNap is hit or miss for me. Definitely high latency from my location. I like a lot of the providers there, but network blend needs improved. Backhauling to California creates some long routes.

From Los Angeles shouldn't be much latency at all.
Try this to see if speed throughput is just a provider issue or your upstream or something else.
BuyVM is in the same facility and has speed test files:
http://speedtest.lv.buyvm.net/
See what you get from those speed wise.

Evening,
Hmm very odd, I just tested from Dallas, LA, and NJ and pulled over 900Mbps. Seattle out was slower at 700Mbps.
For my own personal knowledge and to help better our services, can you guys please post your speedtest results for me?

Feel free to PM me at any time about this.
These odd speeds aren't just you. I see it from 2-3 other provider in same facility and has been going on for quite a while.

you should look into this deal from server complete, I really think it's a good buy! you can send them your own drives which they will install for for free and each server can take up to 3 x 3.5" drives, you can send them SSD but they have to be sent complete with the 2.5"to 3.5" bracket.

yeah unfortunately this server is only available in their Florida DC.. I've had this server for almost a month now it's been great and support is awesome, but have not need to use it after the first few days of setting up the server.. They are in the process of setting up a VPN for IPMI access so it's something to look forward to..
WII also has a similar offer with the same specs but it's $59/mo, was thing about buying that instead cause they pretty much give you a 1Gbit port even thought it states 100 Mbit port and free DA, but it's a hard call cause I'm pretty happy with SC. Their server management panel is similar to OVH so it's pretty convenient for automated OS reload, graphs etc..
