About

All known locations (according to Second Life search) for server storage are shown here.

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.

Rates and prim/impact limits listed may not reflect any recent updates - always check for current rate cards and other current information inworld before renting.

Where Should I Store?

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.

Unfortunately, in 2020, the Lindens decided to make ALL the server code names THE SAME - so there's no easy way to tell anymore, you'll need to ALREADY know what day the sim restarts on.

There is a HUD available that will at least tell you when the region was LAST restarted. Made by Antony Fairport, that's available on Marketplace, and is completely free.

Which is better?

It depends on whether you are selling products which are no-copy to you, the merchant, or copy/transfer to you, the merchant.

No-Copy to Merchant


If you are selling products which are no-copy to you, the merchant, (such as breedable things or gacha items) then stick with a location on a mainland region - the worst that happens with mainland is your stuff gets sent back. You'll still HAVE your inventory, you just may need to fish it out of a clump in your lost and found.

If you're not inworld for a while and an island you're renting dropbox space on gets turned off in the meantime, that box of no-copy things may simply be gone forever with no retrieval possible.

Copy/Transfer to Merchant


If your products are copy/transfer to you, the merchant, then as long as you keep a copy in your inventory it doesn't matter whether you rent on mainland or island estates.

Use the teleporter at the landing point to arrive at the storage center. Our storage servers allow you to store your CasperVend Dropboxes and similar on our SIM.

It's always a good idea to keep your dropboxes in multiple places. Simply rent a 'server' and rez your dropboxes as you need.

A group invite will be sent to you on payment of rental, please accept this so you can rez items here.

The rent meter is above your server rack. Please keep your prims inside your server, any left outside will be returned.
