NICE [PROGRESS UPDATE] SWEDEN IS ALL RACKED UP -COMING VERY SOON

It's taken longer than expected, but we're making good progress.

Big thanks to Obenetwork AB for all of the help with our Swedish expansion, and the in depth photos from start to finish :)

We thought you guys might like to see behind the scenes
Fully racked up (awaiting cables, drives, and other additional hardware)

The process
First, we had to purchase and ship the hardware to Sweden. Ordering this many servers at once, and so much hardware meant that this was one of the longest delays (a week to prepare the hardware, another week to test them all, and roughly yet another week for freight shipping roughly 1 ton of servers to Sweden).

Next they had to be unpacked, checked by the datacenter staff and labelled to determine the configuration, e.g. how much RAM, what CPUs are already installed.

Once fully labelled (which takes like a full day of work because you have to remove the plastic cover and check the RAM modules), they were loaded into a lift (elevator) to be taken to the datacenter level.
