Dual Xeon Dedicated in Downtown LA — RC7.NET's July Sale from $69/mo
A premium Cogent colocation in downtown Los Angeles — 530 W. 6th Street, directly adjacent to One Wilshire — doesn’t often surface in deal threads. RC7.NET owns all its equipment there and operates it in-house, and for July they’re selling off limited R630 and R640 inventory at prices that don’t match the address.

The R630 at $69/mo is the headline: 28 Broadwell cores across two E5-2680v4 sockets, 64GB DDR4, hardware RAID1 on SSD, and an included 1Gbps private link — all in a Cogent facility that commands a premium for good reason. Comparable dual-socket iron in LA typically runs $100–130/mo at mainstream providers and rarely includes unmetered uplinks at that tier. Stock is limited across all configs; order links go directly to availability. The R640 at $199/mo is a separate option for buyers who need extreme RAM headroom (344GB) or on-server storage depth (10TB RAID5 with a 10Gbps private backplane).
