File Hosting Dedicated Server

Oct 26, 2008

One of my Clients asked me about what kind of server would be great and can handle File hosting website like Rapidshare, Megaupload and Adrive?

He just wants to start it here in Arab market Specially [Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE] in hope to do something special with good service.

He will give the visitors two options:-

Free uploading max: 100 MB per file.

Premium uploading max: 1000 MB per file.

Also he asked which kind of file uploading script can handle this. with high fast upload/download speed

About the budget for the first 3 months he want to pay max 250/m after this, if everything is okay he can pay up to 500~1000$ per month. Nop By the way... most of the

Arab market still looking for Rapidshare & 4shared alternatives. As well as they need website in Arabic language with easy steps to use.

Server should come with cPanel/WHM
High Premium Bandwidth.... [Most Important]
Managed will be wonderful but unmanaged is ok.

Compare Dedicated Server Companies/File Hosting Services

Apr 11, 2008

I own a semi-popular downloads website which I host on one server while the actual files/downloads are hosted on another server. This downloads server is very low-end ( AMD Sempron 3000, 1 GB RAM, 120 GB HD, CentOS with lighttpd, no control panel, etc.) and is connected via a 100Mbit shared line with a 3300GB bandwidth limit. Originally, I had it on a 10Mbit dedicated unmetered line but I hoped that by upgrading to the 100Mbit, I'd get better burst speeds, faster transfers/downloads, and a bit more bandwidth in general. Well, this doesn't seem to be the case so I'm looking for a new server or file hosting service hopefully on a better and faster network.

Right now, I'm considering the following companies/services:

* Profithost.net - Decent Dedicated server with nice bandwidth
* Redhostservers.com - OK Dedicated server with awesome bandwidth
* Server4you.com - Great Dedicated server with good bandwidth

* File-services.com - Decently priced pure file hosting with OK features
* MegaUpload Business account with Hotlink Quota - Decently priced pure file hosting with nice features

Webhost That Allows File Hosting

May 16, 2009

I plan to host a small multimedia site.

I am looking for a new webhost. I want a webhost that:

1. Costs less than $10 a month

2. Allows file hosting. (Video streaming/downloading)

3. Ideally allows for storage of files that are not related to the website.

4. Ideally allows for anonymous FTP access.

Only 1 and 2 are critical. The site will have many MP3s, Videos, PDF and text documents available for streaming or downloading. All the material will either be my own or the copywrited material of my organization. I have their express written permission to host and distribute these media files under a creative commons license. It will be 5GB or less of files, and they will be downloaded rarely and not very many people simultaneously downloading at once.

Most webhosts I have looked at (Monsterhost, 1and1, Bluehost, mmhosting.com, etc) All offer unlimited/tons of space and have some provision in their terms of service agreement like this: "Webhost company does not allow file sharing / unlimited media sharing." or "HostMonster.Com offers its Services to host web sites, not to store data. Using an account as an online storage space for archiving electronic files is prohibited and will result in termination of hosting services without prior notice."

So where can I find a host that allows file hosting, video hosting, etc? I don't need a lot of bandwidth/storage space, but I do want to host my media.

Static File Hosting

Apr 4, 2009

I currently have an existing web hosting package with a web host. However, I need to supplement that with a file hosting service for my users.

I'm estimating that I will need about 2Gb disk space, and approximately 30~40Gb of traffic monthly. This will just be plain static file hosting. I don't need any scripts, databases, etc.

*.mp3 Link File Hosting

Oct 27, 2009

any reliable audio hosting service that can offer an *.mp3 - ending link to a file, not the "server.com/folder/4j8uz22ewssw" thing, please? In other words I'm looking for a hosting service with a direct link to an mp3 (just to clear things up, its not copyrighted since I'm the owner of it).

File Sharing Hosting

Oct 16, 2009

Im doing an iphone app related to audio recording. I would like for the user to be able to share these recordings on twitter/facebook. Since you can't encode to mp3 (licensing issue i think), I'll have to do it server side, and then host those mp3s for some period of time (week or month).

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend an inexpensive hosting solution I should look at. Most of the cheaper hosting plans I see would probably consider this as file sharing and not allow it in their TOS.

I thought I would be able to use google appengine, and pay only for whats used... but since it doesn't do direct disk access I don't think there's a way for me to convert to mp3 with them.

Legalities For File Hosting

Jun 17, 2009

I'm creating a script that includes a feature for people to upload files and music which they can distribute to their users...

What are legalities for hosting files that have been uploaded by other users? For example, if they upload files that are copyrighted, how do I protect myself from getting in trouble for hosting the files?

Would it be better if the files are hosted on the account holders website and my script just links to them?

Right Host For File Hosting?

Jul 21, 2008

I have a dedicated server for most of my sites and scripts

I'm starting a site (kind of like rapidshare, not really the same but for the purpose of this example, it might as well be rapidshare/megaupload/etc)

I want to run the main site off my dedicated server, but for the hosting of files, I want hosting that will offer good speeds/bandwidth/space

I'm not sure if I should get multiple 10mbit/sec lines, or one 100mbit/sec line, or what I should really do

Cheap File Hosting?

Jun 29, 2008

if there were services dedicated to hosting large files.

Basically, instead of those free upload sites (ie MediaFire), it gives a direct link to the file, the file doesn't expire, and there isn't a 100MB upload limit.

Would prefer to have 50GB+ space, and if bandwidth is metered, probably 100GB/month or over.

Obviously, there's no need for any scripting/dynamic content.

Would such a thing be available for around US$5/month?

(Considering that sites like Megaupload can give you 250GB of space with no bandwidth metering for around US$50/year, I don't think it's too unreasonable to ask for something less but with direct links)

File Hosting Website

Jul 2, 2007

A friend of mine and I are developing a new File Hosting website. Growth of data is huge and we'd need a way to welcome million daily users.

What do we need? We have already 4 servers on hand ready to go. We are coding a kind of multi-server script to make our life easier.

What about the specs we'd need for our main server? Do we need a load-balancing system?

And for hardware replacement, is there anyway to get life easier if any hdd (hard drive disk) are broken?

Any Hosting Without File Number Restrictions

Apr 21, 2009

Is there any hosting providers without file number limits? Or higher limits...

I've been using dreamhost, but found that they have a 500k file number limits. So now i'm using less than 2 gigs of disk and still have 370+ worthless free gigs of disk space

Secure File Hosting Service

Feb 9, 2009

I don't know where to ask this question so hopefully I'm in the right forum. I have a friend that owns his own company and travels alot. He needs a place where he can store his work files (mostly document like word, excel, pdf, drawings, etc...) which contains very sensitive information. He need a place where he or the people in his team can transfer files and that he can setup access levels for his users. He need access to his files with a secure tool such as sftp or something else that you guys can recommend.

Also, since some files can be very large he requires a good transfer speed from everywhere in the world. He's looking at around 100GB of storage space and a very high transfer allowance. He will probably need to host his website also. Do you guys think it's better to host the files and website separately?

Fast, Reliable File Hosting

Nov 4, 2009

I have a VPS account now and I host a setup.exe file on my site, but about 10% of all downloads are incomplete and result in a corrupt setup file. I am guessing that maybe it's because too many people are trying to download the file at the same time? Whatever the reason, I need more reliable file hosting. Can anyone suggest a place to host just my files, which will provide speedy, reliable downloads? I'll still keep the VPS for my site, but need to put the files elsewhere. I don't want any free, ad supported sites, or ones that require the user to visit another site first.

Creating A File Hosting Service

Mar 20, 2009

I hired a full time web designer to help me create the site but I'm wondering what else I'm missing.

I'm guessing I'm going to need a high end dedicated server with an 100mb unmetered port? How much space should I be looking for? The file size is going to be limited to 150mb per download and if the files have not been downloaded in 2 weeks they will be deleted. What type of HDD space should I be looking for?

Running A File Hosting Site

Sep 22, 2008

going to be starting a file hosting site, i know that the main problem on these sort of sites for the owners is Bandwith and HD space. Just want to know some perhaps some advice on how to run this kind of business as far as the hosting part of it goes.

Do i just keep purchasing servers lets say at midphase for example they offer 10TB 250 Gigs of hdspace at 200 a month, so if i go over do i just keep purchasing servers and then load balance the site across all the servers i get? is that the basics ?

When sites start to consume massive amounts of bandwidth is their cheaper alternatives then just going with the normal BW that hosts offer, like working out deals with certain companies that specialize in giving BW deals, would CDN networks be an option?

Inexpensive Reliable File Storage Hosting

Jul 18, 2008

Just got a letter from InMotion. They don't like I uploaded my backup files to them, which makes their hosting benefits totally pointless to me and I will be moving to some other cheaper hosting since I basically only use email.

So I need some place to store my backups... I need only about 5 Gb, and I don't care about bandwidth, as I don't plan to download them unless all my HDDs will burn or get stolen or something so I don't need bandwidth. And it should be no more than few bucks/mo.

Should Shared Hosting Be Allowed File Storage

Oct 26, 2008

For those host which are not overselling, they have obviously the space for file storage. But should they allow file storage on their shared hosting account, if they aren't overselling, and the files are legal?

Well, this can also be counted as a survey I need

It would be best if you provide a reason if your vote is no.

File Corruption When Moving Hosting Companies

Apr 26, 2007

I'm in the middle of moving a bunch of sites from one hosting company to another. For most of the sites, I downloaded the files via FTP from the original server to my local hard drive. Then I uploaded them from my hard drive to the new hosting company/server.

It seems like many of the files -- especially swf files and some image files -- were corrupted. I'm thinking something weird happened with the extensions but I'm not sure.

All extensions LOOK ok but I'm wondering if either my computer or the server is hiding an extra extension. Somewhere today, I saw a file go by called index.swf.fla, which makes no sense at all. And yet, on both the server and my computer, it just says index.swf which is what it should say.

Windows Hosting That Allows File/Image Write Through Script

Mar 21, 2009

I have a website built with asp .Net with MS SQL database. The website have some pages that uploads images and files in some folders.

I have tried GoDaddy shared Windows hosting. But they don't seem to allow file upload using a script.

Then I tried GoDaddy Virtual Dedicated. The tech guy told me MS SQL would be part of the hosting. Later I find he lied, there is no MS SQL as part of it.

I am trying to find an affordable hosting that has MS SQL and also allows file upload using script.

Hosting Setup - Large Amount Of File Storage

Aug 21, 2007

on good hosting setups for getting large amounts of disk space.

I would like to be able to offer up to 2Gb storage space for 100s, maybe up to a few 1000 users - any solution should scale well. The files would be static files that might be up to 400Mb in size.

It would be nice to be able to give users FTP access to their disk space, although it's not a core requirement.
