| Let's say you have a budget situation which allows you to pick one of the two following options for your primary file server: Option 1. Use your internal server room, which gives you redundant network links from your primary file server to your switch, but which has sprinklers in the ceiling and (because of budget) you'll only be able to afford the installation of a single, commercial A/C unit. Option 2. Use the colo datacentre across the street, which has top-notch air conditioning, fire suppression, etc., but you'd only get a single dedicated fibre link from your primary fileserver to your network. Which would you choose? Sprinklers and non-redundant A/C, or a single fibre line under the street from your primary file server to your network? Assume that cost is equal.
