FDC 1Gbit Unmetered Server Any Good

Apr 11, 2009

I was looking at FDC's 1Gbit Burstable Unmetered dedi server:

[url]

and it says this:

50Mbps during PEAK hours and 300Mbps during OFF PEAK hours

I realise these are the shared bandwidth speeds, but has anyone used these and are these the correct speeds?

And the server specs are this:

CPU - Core2Quad 8300
Memory - 8GB RAM
Hard Disk Space - 2x500GB HDD

Does anyone know why FDC don't list the full server specs like Ghz, control panel, php support, operating system etc?

I know FDC dedi's are unmanaged, but what is the easier operating system to install updates onto, windows server 2008 or linux?

Good Price For 100mbit Unmetered?

Sep 20, 2008

I'm wondering what a good price is for a basic single CPU dual core server, 1GB RAM, 100mbit unmetered. I mean proper bandwidth on quality providers, not 100mbit shared with 50 other servers.

Interested to hear views on what a good price is for the UK.

IWeb 10Mbps Unmetered Dedicated. Any Good

Jul 2, 2008

Anyone have experience with this connection from iWeb?

From their website:

Quote:

"At iWeb your unmetered port is not shared, if you buy a 10Mbps port,
you are guaranteed to be able to use 10Mbps whenever you need it!"

So I wonder what peaks can you expect from their 10Mbps network,
especially in US and Europe.

German Dedicated Server With 1Gbit

Jan 14, 2009

I am in search of a dedicated server company who could offer servers with 1Gbit connection.

I searched the offers section but came up with nothing.

I even emailed some companies offering servers in Germany for 1Gbit connection but they all said they cannot offer it.

Does anyone know which company offers it who accepts PayPal as payment gateway?

I checked out hetzner.de and they do offer 1Gbit ONBOARD servers.

I do not read German so there is no knowing for me to make sure but I'm guessing "100 MBit Fast-Ethernet-Anbindung an Switch:" means 100Mbit internet connection and 1Gbit is only inside their network.

I do not need high spec servers nor too much bandwidth (1TB-1.5TB).

This will only be used as a gateway to VPN network with backup servers.

USA Unmetered Server

May 24, 2008

I've currently got around 10 dedicated servers for the MMORPG we run, 3 of which act as patch distribution servers / download servers.

The patch distribution servers are fairly low spec (Single CPU, 1-2GB RAM, 250GB HDD), but connect through a 100MB unmetered port - all of these are currently in the EU.

I'm now looking at a USA patch server, but not sure where to look. The only provider that springs to mind is FDC Servers but not sure how good they are these days. I don't mind if the provider is on the East or West coast (or even Central), but they must provide 100MBps unmetered (shared is fine).

Currently paying around $100-$200 for each other patch server, so would ask that $200-250 is the limit.

Unmetered Dedicated Server ...

I Am having a hard time finding decent 3 to 10 MBPS Dedicated servers . I don't really care about the other specs.

Dedicated Server With True Unmetered Bandwidth

Oct 15, 2009

Looking for a dedicated unmetered server to stream movies and audio for over 500 visitors a day. Anybody knows any place that is good?

Also, what kind of hardware specifications would be OK for me - in terms of speed and memory? And would we be OK with a 10mbit port or 100?

Would I survive on a dedicated server with a shared bandwidth?

100mbit Unmetered Dedicated Server With WHM/Cpanel

Mar 10, 2008

I can stay for a long long time, and thus building a strong server by upgrading whenever I have the spare cash to do so. What I'm thinking is a service where it's possible to buy more HD space, RAM or CPU by paying a ONE TIME fee.

Other requirerments is:
- It must come with cpanel/whm
- CentOS or linux OS
- I would prefer if the server is managed, and unmetered.

The server should of course be used for everything from having image host, to downloading via bitorrent. Obviously I'm looking for a host who doesn't put their nose into my business.

Budget: 100-150$

Talk About Dedicated Unmetered 10mbit - Made My Server Scream

May 27, 2008

I always thought that 10 mbit unmetered was just a prank or not really dedicated to the server. But damn the server i got from www.kevworks.net totally screamed when doing some real bw tests.

Might try more tests to see if server performs and can provide the bw juice for me.

These are the stats from mrtg i got going :

Max Average Current
In 9853.9 kb/s (98.5%) 311.2 kb/s (3.1%) 4805.5 kb/s (48.1%)
Out 9553.6 kb/s (95.5%) 849.0 kb/s (8.5%) 9553.6 kb/s (95.5%)


Well cannot really post link to the mrtg as wht mods will go "aah bunny no url posting to ur site " crazy !!

So look at the screenie itself

Amazing i was actually able to pull 10mbit/s out of the server. So good work to you Kevin (kev not sure what his name is or am too tired to remember ).

PS: will be doing more bw tests over the next weeks or over the entire month, i am trying to somehow use full 3.3 TB bw over the month. (doing mirrors for distros and other linux stuff can really push the limits at times) Wondering if anyone know of places to get some beta testers to test the server's bw limits (act as mirror for your game maps, linux distros, rpm packages and w/e comes free to download)

Hopefully server wont be shut down cause bunny used the full bw potential ( i have heard horror stories of providers capping servers further and stuff when customers starts pulling too much bw (maybe cause they put server on shared bw or something).

List Of Good Hosters With Good TELEPHONE Tech Support

May 6, 2008

I'd like to start an ongoing thread here listing the 'Good Hosters with Good TELEPHONE tech support'. In other words, out of the 1,000s of host companies, this may cut it down to less than a dozen.

( And for all you Hosters out there who really want your company to grow, and want to know how, - it's easy: just read here.)

Good telephone support is the #1 ultimate requirement, because:

-It's a lot faster and easier for both the user and the host company, because you can state and answer all questions and clarifications on the spot, you don't need to continually pass new emails with new questions and clarifications, back and forth for days on end, until the issue is solved. It saves tech time and user's time. And saves a lot of nerves.

- It's the best way to sort the good guys from the bad. A bad company isn't going to bother to answer the phone, - or will make you wait way too long, - because they are likely getting endless complaints. The good guys are always ready to answer the phones, with a friendly voice, - because they really WANT to please the customer.

- If a company can't be bothered to pick up the phone, we can't be bothered to even consider them. They're a joke, and so won't be listed here on this thread. (So, before adding or listing any Hosters here, please verfify that they do have Good, quick, friendly, telephone support,; ideally 24/7, but 9am to 10pm might be acceptable, if it was supplemented by some emergency contact.
AND:

- Hoster ALSO needs good EMAIL support (and preferably, Chat online, extended hour availability). (I spend a lot of time overseas). It sems all emails should get a non-automated response within about an hour, - and then support should jump on fixing any problem.

I only need support a few times a year. To answer some questions, or fix a problem, or do an install. That's lesss than 1 hour total, so any company paying maybe $18/hour tech support should be able to handle this. It IS reasonable to charge a custm for extended calls, beyond say, 90minutes a year, IF you don't count the 80%? Of times an issue is the Hoster;s fault of stmg gone wrong, and don't count the 'hold' times.

ALSO IMPORTANT:
- Uptime
- site Speeds
- Monthly plans, no contract (Only a dishonest host will try to force you into a contract, where they can then ignore you.)
- Reasonable price. (? Maybe $12 to $18/month for a basic business site. We don't need massive bandwitdths, - we all know that's an overselling scam, and can't ever be delivered.)
- a good upgrade plan of bigger options. Maybe even VPS.
- Dedicated IP, and availbility of SSL
-PHP 5, mysql, phpMyAdmin, etc
- cPanel ( Some Hosts are using problematic panels, like Hsphere, which are slow to load, slow in operation, require many more clicks, have too many options, spread apart on many separate pages. Time is money, and this really slows down the ability of a small business to manage his own site in effective time. For example, one WHT user wrote somewhere: "I don't feel that HSphere's interface is nice at all, although I have worked with cPanel and DA all my life... I just found it to include un-necessary features or split features up in to different hard to find pages, such as backups - mysql backups you had to find on a completely different page than file backups, and then there were options to have it in the home directory or server-end backup, in which then you had to wait a good 10 minutes before it was ready. cPanel, just hit backup and hit download and instantly it does everything you need...".

I have used several hosters. Currently on Aplus.net and Godad, which have phone support, and mediocre service.

My LIST So Far:
- Liquidweb: a very impressive company with good, 24 hour support. But to get dedicated IP, you need to go with their $25/month plan. Yikes!
- NewIdeaHosting.com. A very small company. My call was returned, and the owner chatted with me for an hour on the phone! Plans have small bandwidth, but promises No overselling, and personalized attention. Extra $5 for dedi IP. He specializes in Small business sites, and small eCommerce sites. He has only 250 accounts, on 3 servers. He rents servers from the Equinox data center of Chicago. Seems exceptionaly honest.
- MegaHosters. Excellent phone support and WHT reviews. But company was taken over by another company, and so may well go downhill in future. Another problem: uses Hsphere.
- Steadfast. Has a good rep on WHT, and seems impressive. Tech answered the phone immediately, but they say they prefer emails. Sales phone has limited hours. Good price on $20 SSL. But, uses Hshhere.
- JodoHost 24 hour phone. But, uses Hsphere. An Indian company with office in Florida, and good rep. I like the idea of outsourcing phone support, if it makes it more available and affordable. But, the accent on the phone was very hard for me to understand, so maybe this might not work.....
- Hostgator. Yes, it's a big overseller, but seems to get good reviews/results anyway, and good phone support.
- ? ThePrimeHost ?? Mostly good WHT reviews; some dissenters. Site says 24hour phone, but when I called on several nights, no one ever answered...
- Can anyone add to this list? Please list only hosts that meet the above minimum requirements of phone support, etc. Especially useful is hosters you've tried.
TO AVOID:
- Avoid Arvixe. I had a horrid experience with them, here: [WHT forum]:/showthread.php?p=5097822#post5097822
- Avoid WebHostingBuzz. This company never returned my phone msessage inquiries.

How Good Is This Server

Feb 26, 2007

what is your opinion on this server?

Processor : P4 3.0Ghz Processor
Memory: 2GB of RAM
Hard Drive : 2x160GB SATA Drives (RAID 1) Management Level : DEFCON 2
1500GB B/W
100mp/s uplink
With cpanel and WHM.

That normally goes for $383 at the company I'm looking at. I'm curious because I was offered that they give me this server for free, and in exchange give them some advertising. So price doesn't really matter right now.

How good is this server, and how large of sites would you say it could handle?

I know a separate db would be better but I want to start off cheap. Any other options that can get me in the game for about $600?

Good Server For Virtuozzo?

Jul 16, 2007

I'll soon buy Virtuozzo with 3 VE on each server. I won't be selling VPS for now, but I'm planning to. The main reason why I'm doing this move it's because I want a good backup and fast recovery over problems and an easy way to do maintenance with almost no downtime.

Both servers will run one "main" VE within Virtuozzo, the other spare will be for testing and/or Live Move between them.

Both server that I'm running now are P4 2.8 GHz Dual Core, 2 GB RAM, 160 GB SATA, everything’s run fine!

I'm looking for a server with this configuration and I want you to tell me if it's good. (And if there’s anything I should change since it won’t work well in team)

1 x Supermicro SuperServer 5015M-T+ 1U
1 x Processor - 1 x Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
1 x Kingston - Memory - 4 GB ( 2 x 2 GB ) - DIMM 240-pin - DDR II - 667 MHz - registered
2 x Seagate SV35 Series 7200.2 ST3500630SV - Hard drive - 500 GB - internal - 3.5" - SATA-300 - 7200 rpm - buffer: 16 MB (RAID 1)

I’ll get this server for about 2000$CAD with taxes and shipping. I’ve looked at Xeon, but even with a low 5110, it’s pretty heavy in price!

What do you think (except that my English is bad!)?

Budget Server In The UK With Good Support

May 3, 2008

Things have become a little hectic.

I decided to go for a budget dedicated server because the shared hosting I was using was grinding to a halt several times a week.

I haven't used a dedicated server before, and wasn't 100% sure what I needed, so after lot's of going round in circles, I found the 123-reg £49.99 server and unlimited bandwidth, so I ordered it....and waited, and waited. Not so much as an order confirmation, or reply to my emails asking what was going on. Not a great start, so I cancelled the order.

OK, I have a budget of around £60 a month.

I need the server to be able to do mod_rewrites.

Unlimited, or a generous amount of bandwidth per month is important.

Good service if it all goes wrong is essential.

Preferably UK based, but will consider other countries if contacting them isn't a problem.

I need some kind of control panel as well.

i will be running a Vbulletin + VBSEO (hence the mod_rewrites) installation and a joomnla installation with lots of large images if that makes any difference.
