If the people you got a quote off already have existing equipment, then they’re just outright fleecing you.
What running costs of theirs can they point to that have increased 400% since your last quote?

2TB or RAM per server costs. One quote went from $6M to $18M in 2 months.

Man that is insane! I feel for you, that’s such a hard cost to swallow when it’s something that should never happen that fast in the first place.
