Not so long ago, on Habré, topics about server rental on an Atom processor skipped. Unfortunately, the proposed data centers for the location did not suit me for the quality of communication.

And so it happened, I just managed to come to an agreement with the new Agave center in Dolgoprudny.

So, Agava is ready to offer us the placement of servers ASUS EEE Box B202 or Acer Aspire Revo at a price of 1000 rubles. per unit
Digging through a bunch of reviews and documentation, I personally recommend taking an Acer Aspire Revo about this configuration
http://www.dont.ru/market.id11829.html for 10300 rubles. and delivering another memory bar for 1GB to it, the server can be stored in 11 thousand, but the warranty will be lost. Whoever is afraid of this, can take over 12800 Acer with two gigs at once and an increased hard disk up to 250GB.
http://www.dont.ru/market.id11890.html . Who is quite comfortable with 1GB of RAM, they can just stop at the first option.
And for those who are not yet in the know, I will explain the charms of the server on Atom:This option should be chosen only if you need a low-powered server that can be considered as a replacement for Shared hosting or VDS!
Placing a server on an atom is much cheaper. Calculate the cost for the first year: 11000 (purchase) + 12000 (rent) = 1917 rubles per month, which is cheaper than the cheapest server rental offer in the same Agave (Celeron 2,66GHz CPU, 512Mb RAM, 80Gb HDD - 2490 rubles) and at the same time significantly exceeds it in power and available resources. If you compare an atom with VDS, then for about the same money you get a server with guaranteed full kernel load, faster disk and more RAM and HDD (

For the second and subsequent years, the savings will be even greater, because I laid the cost of the server only in the first year of operation. According to my calculations, such a server should work without failures of the year 3.
In general, if someone wants to share with me 1Unit, clogged with nettops, you need to do the following:1) Fill out an application at
http://www.renter.ru/colocation.html2) In the comments indicate the exact model of nettop that you want to place.
Agave employees will contact you and tell you everything.
UPD: there are a lot of requests to rent a nettop, and not to a collocation. My advice, write to the Agave, explain the situation. I am sure that two or three requests and things will get off the ground. It is worth writing here:
