That seems a bit far south for a data center site.

Already forgot about that. I guess it's the data/capacity of a data center, and not necessarily the location.

Red Oak is much closer to Dallas than Frisco...

If you mean downtown Dallas, then yes, but Dallas is a big sprawly city and the northern border is only about 6 miles from Frisco.
Red Oak to downtown is 18 miles vs 23 miles downtown Dallas to Frisco.
