We rent most of our servers from Hetzner in Nuremberg, Germany. They offer two different physical locations, each for the main and mirror server. You can check out their price list, further information about their data centre (German only) and their security policy (German only). Our main reason for using Hetzner is that they offer high quality hardware and services at unmatched prices. Having worked with them right from the start, we know that they are very good and respond fast to problems - even beyond their office hours. On specific client request we do run some UK based servers, too.
