Q: What is Dacentec Rent to Own?

A: All of our servers except some equipment labelled 'Rent Only' are offered in this way.

The rent to own period is 12 months with regular payments.

During the rental period we will warranty all hardware, including disk. Just send a request for replacement.

Any time ater 12 months you can request to own the server, and change your services to colocation. After that we can provide hardware replacement on a per incident basis for a fee.


Q: Are there any 'hidden fees' or other charges to have you ship the server to me once I own it?


A: We can prepare everything for you for shipping though, For a standard 1U servers there is a $50 fee for the uninstalling and preparing the server for shipment.

This fee includes: Removal of the server from the rack Cardboard Shipping Box Packing Materials meeting UPS shipping guidelines Packing and sealing the server in the box. Affixing a customer provided shipping label to the box. Moving the server to the shipping and recieving area.


Once we get everything packaged up for you and get the weight we will send it to you so you can arrange shipping with your preferred carrier.

For multiple servers, or specialty items we offer a time and materials based service that is $50/hour (remote hands fee) plus the cost of packing materials.

Customers are always welcome to pick their equipment up from the datacenter without and charge.

A: Only after you own the server, during the rental period we cannot accept outside parts or equipment.
