menlo digital: Tennessee Data Center
About Tennessee Data Center
Located at 425 Duke Drive, Nashville (Aspen Grove Corporate Center), Tennessee — within the fast-growing Nashville tech & business corridor, offering direct access to Interstate 65 and major regional fiber routes. Operated by Menlo Digital (a dedicated digital-infrastructure platform of Menlo Equities) which brings deep real-estate and data-centre investment experience to the facility.
The facility was originally constructed in 2006, expanded in 2013 and has undergone extensive internal infrastructure upgrades — providing a matured shell ready for enterprise and scalable workloads.
Positioned in a region with moderate seismic risk, strong business incentives and emerging connectivity density — making it suitable for resilient operations and network-diverse deployments.
Designed for enterprise-grade colocation, cloud and hyperscale users, the site offers the scalability and infrastructure robustness needed for modern digital platforms.
⚙️ Facility Highlights —
- Significant gross floor size of approx. 67,167 NRSF (net rentable square feet) within a one-story structure, enabling large contiguous spaces for data-centre fit-out.
- Upgraded internal infrastructure supports high-availability operations with dedicated power feeds, bolstered cooling and flexible layout options (though specific MW power numbers are not publicly disclosed).
- Adaptive and modular design: the internal upgrades and expansion history signal that Menlo Digital can deliver tenant-specific configurations and scaled deployments.
- Energy-efficient architecture: by leveraging an existing building with upgraded systems, the facility enables improved mechanical and electrical efficiency compared to typical brownfield builds.
- Built to support mission-critical workloads, with infrastructure designed around enterprise and cloud-scale reliability and service-continuity standards.
🔐 Security & Compliance —
- Employs multi-layer physical security including perimeter protection, 24×7 staffing, CCTV surveillance, and high-density card/badge access systems (standard enterprise-grade data-centre practice).
- Advanced fire detection and suppression systems engineered to meet stringent uptime and safety demands (e.g., early-warning smoke detection, compartmentalised fire zones).
- Operated by a platform focused on hyperscale, enterprise and cloud infrastructure — so it is aligned with the service-levels, uptime guarantees and operational rigour these customer segments require.
- While specific certifications (e.g., ISO 27001, SOC 2) are not publicly listed for this site, Menlo Digital’s portfolio is designed for global operator, cloud and digital-platform customers, indicating built-in compliance readiness.
🌐 Connectivity & Carrier Access —
