Hi. So far we have 1 KVS client (conversion & storage servers). We have our own kvs site dedicated to domaining dnmum.com and thinking of setting up another one (a tube for Latvian webmasters).
As my team are getting more used to KVS, I am thinking of starting offering KVS servers for new clients.
Do you mind sharing your experience and maybe even experience of dealing with your favourite hosting provider?
And, could you share your experience if any of these numbers are overkill or opposite, too low?

I'm targeting $155/month per server.
I am still thinking of the best backup solution for these. What do you use for backup?
Would love to hear any thoughts, comments.
