What I learned waiting 14 months for cabinet capacity

Hostinger takes a few cryptos through CoinGate. Pulsant in the UK used to, not sure now. The XMR option at Contabo is direct, no processor, which is why I mentioned it. Saved me some forex headache from COP to EUR.

Following. Want to see where the XMR discussion goes.

The textile mill conversion is actually two buildings. The newer concrete annex has proper raised floor and containment. The original brick building is where they stuff the budget VPS nodes. Different fire suppression too. If you got cabinet space, you are in the annex. The "existing client" reservations were probably them moving cloud nodes between buildings during the electrical upgrade.

This explains so much. The photos they sent me were definitely the annex, clean aisles, white containment. But my first site visit offer was the brick building, I could tell from the windows in the background. I declined and waited for the other option.

Smart move declining. Brick building has had two cooling failures in the last 18 months that I know of from status page alerts. Annex stayed up. The cloud VPS reboots were never explained properly.

This thread delivered. Carlos2 you should write the post. Even if just for the historical record of what "Q3" means in hosting.

Post is drafted. Waiting 30 days to see if the cabinet actually stays provisioned before I publish. Learned that lesson too.
