After spending a little time(few days) on researching colocation, it seems it is really expensive since it is targeted towards Small/Medium businesses.
I don't own a business. I am a graduate student and I wanted to see how much it would be for me to colocate my servers. Main reason being that I live in a rented place and I might not be able to run extra power lines for the server rack. Maybe. I don't know that yet for sure.
So my question would be: Is there any company that provide reasonable pricing for people who are not running a business for colocating their servers?
Maybe I am just missing the who reason behind colocation and that could explain the prices for colocating servers.
Additional info for reference:
I was looking for around 1/4 rack - 10U-12U?
Around $100/month
Around NJ-NY area.
Thanks!
