All known locations (according to Second Life search) for server storage are shown here.
== [mynt]dc Data Center Server Storage Locations ==
These are locations specifically set up as dedicated, additional ("co-location") storage hosting for DropBoxes and other servers, rather than add-ons to residential, commercial shop, or club parcels.
We provide inexpensive, long term server storage and co-location for CasperVend DropBoxes, Magicboxes, etc.
Located in a number of low lag mainland sims (and expanding as needed on demand), we ensure high performance server housing space to maximize reliability of your business. Rez'n'Go with instant group invite for immediate access to our racks.
Our pricing is based on the amount of the prims you rezz (a typical CasperLet DropBox has 1 prim):
Rates and prim/impact limits listed may not reflect any recent updates since the last update of these wiki pages - always check for current rate cards and other current information inworld before renting.
* 1 prim units --> 20 L$ per 4 weeks
* 2 prim units --> 35 L$ per 4 weeks
* 4 prim units --> 60 L$ per 4 weeks

That depends entirely upon whether the items you are selling are copiable TO YOU, THE MERCHANT (AND you keep a copy in your inventory!) or not.

If you are selling items such as gacha prizes, breedables, or other no-copy-to-you things that you have received, then you are at the best advantage on a MAINLAND hosting location.

Why?
== LIONHEART Data Center - Long Term Server Hosting - Since 2007 ==
Because if the storage/hosting provider on a mainland location closes up shop, at worst, your items will just be sent back to your lost and found in a clump. You'll have to rez and separate them, but at least you will HAVE them.
[[File:Datacenter_thumb.png|frame|alt=Lionheart Data Center|[http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Lionheart%20Simba/29/130/30 Lionheart Data Center]]]
Lionheart Data Center is the oldest professional Data Center on the grid, which offers you a permanent and safe place for your:
* CasperVend DropBoxes
* Rental Servers
* Vendor Servers
* Staff Payment Gateways
* Inventory Servers
And much more.
We offer the space you need to keep your business up and running even if your main circumstances are changing. Discounts for long term commitments. 60 Racks available of 8 prims each.
However, If you have rented space on an island, and the provider closes up shop and drops the island? Your items are just...GONE. No retrieval, no second chances.

That is why the list is now divided into mainland vs island locations.

='''<span style="color:#00528c">Why do the restart days matter?</span>'''=
Because if you have your dropboxes on 3 different regions, and they're all restarting on the same day, they could all be down at the same time - which could make your sales fail.
For best results, choose a storage provider where the sim/region has a restart day that is '''different''' from the one your main dropbox location is on. This helps combat delivery issues due to a single sim either being restarted at the time of delivery attempts, or the sim/region just not listening to the internet for delivery instructions at the moment.
<s>Unfortunately, in 2020, the Lindens decided to make ALL the server code names '''THE SAME''' - so there's no easy way to tell which is which anymore, you'll need to ALREADY know what day the sim restarts on.</s>
As of April 2024, the region names are BACK!
