Re: Oh It's so snappy!




Co-location cost of rack space and power, and the minimum increments available, vary greatly by city, type of facility, how many ISPs are available to choose from in the co-location space, and so on.  Figure on a bare minimum of $100/month, though most co-location providers do not offer less than full racks, which you would typically pay around $1000-$2000/month for (including power.)




Your bandwidth needs will be dictated by your application and usage patterns.  A Citrix administrator might be better able to answer this for you than me.  I can tell you that the price of bandwidth for small buyers pretty much ranges from $5/Mbps to $50/Mbps depending on what co-location facility you are in and how many ISPs are there competing for your business.




IMO if you have high-speed FiOS options available, you would be best served by locating your server at the facility that has the 8 users.
