    Nice dbase server needed - spam me!

    OK folks, I'm looking for a nice loaded server for high thruput dbase queries.
    No control panel nonsense required, but scsi drives and ram are a must. Dual cores would be just sweet also.


    The very best offers I've had at the moment (v. seriously thinking about it) are the following:

    Code:
    [B]P4 820 (2x2.8GHz 2MB Cache), 2GB DDR, 2 * 160GB SATA HDD, RAID1 - $99/mo. + $149 setup

Dual Xeon 2.4GHz 1MB Cache, 2GB ECC DDR, 2 * 36GB 10K DRPM SCSI HDD, RAID1 - $99/mo. + $249 setup

Dual Xeon 2.4GHz 1MB Cache,  3GB ECC DDR, 2 * 73GB SCSI  RAID1
for $99/mo ($349 setup)[/B]
    They came with 1500GB b/w. (I require min. 800GB b/w/mo). Must have 100 mbit full duplex uplink port tho

    Can you better any of these three deals? If so, spam me

    US or EU location. Either is good.
    I currently have 4 dedicated servers and have been renting servers for over 4 years - I'm in in for the long haul, so don't mind a small upfront setup cost to bring down the monthly rental.

    Cheers

          wanted to edit, but timed out - this is an unmanaged server I require (but Level1 management is essential). Please indicated any extras like KVM or remote reboot ports etc etc

          Also, FreeBSD please.

              OK, it's 10Mb/s, but jeeze, $1200 per month?!! Did you read my post? I can get the dual xeons for $99/mo

                      those are nasty setup fees. hit up oc3networks. they can probably hook you up.

                              Because they were from tailoredservers - they seem to have been around a while, but I don't know them, so am a little reluctant to pay the setup fees if they'll be gone tomorrow. They offer a choice of three network providers tho, which is nice. Thanks tho for pointing that out - they are great offers, and I never clarified why I am erring on them!

                                              3 different providers? or 3 different in bgp? 3 different not multihomed means they are not running bgp and are prone to downtime....

                                                  it was 3 network providers (HE.net, Yipes and the Planet), so I guess he's a reseller with many servers spread in different datacenters...
                                                  Don't like the idea of going through resellers though

                                                      I checked out http://tailoredservers.com/ and wasn't able to come up with pricing anywhere near what you are posting here. Are you sure you aren't mixing up the monthly price with the setup fee?

                                                      Like on the machine you listed :
                                                      Dual Xeon 2.4GHz 1MB Cache, 2GB ECC DDR, 2 * 36GB 10K DRPM SCSI HDD, RAID1 - $99/mo. + $249 setup

                                                      The price I come up with is actually $359/mo and $199 setup.

                                                      If you are looking to get into this for the long haul, and want reliability, then don't even think of going with "cheap". Cheap ends up being just that in the end. Garbage, and a nightmare hosting experience.

                                                      If you want to consider something truly reliable, feel free to hit me up. But the price will be more then what you are listing above.

                                                      Do you own a cheap car, cheap house, cheap cloths? No? Why not? Think about it.

                                                              That's not true at all. I have servers with EV1 since they were rackshack and with the relatively new comer layeredtech. LayeredTech are darn cheap and I have found 100% reliable. Not every cheap server can be found on the main website you know.

                                                                  Yes, I understand that, and we make deals for people all the time as well. But $99 a month for a Dual Xeon / 2G / 36 SCSI box is obnoxiously cheap. Unless they are getting their equipment off Ebay or something, a 1U server with those specs is going to run at least $2K+. It would take almost 2 years just to pay the box off. Therefore zero income to the company. Something isn't right when hosts offer things that cheap.

                                                                  One of the following is happening.

                                                                  LayeredTech is fairly inexpensive, but not $99 for a dual Xeon. We would be willing to match them, without the setup fee.

                                                                  Keep in mind, LayeredTech is not multi-homed, we are.

It is a fact that HTing on a web server will not perform as well as a box with out HTing turned on. There are bench marks to prove this.

That is extremely cheap, even with no management services. For bandwidth alone that would be less than 7 cents per gb, and that hasn't configured in other expenses like hardware, space rental, etc. Makes me wonder what corners their cutting to offer those prices.

                                                                              If interested in talking, feel free to email me at [email protected] .

If they could id take every server they have at that price, close down my hosting operation, sell all my equiptment, and host everything i have with them.

                                                                                              I get $299-$349 a month for 5 mbs and a dual 2.8ghz xeon ibm server, good luck in your quest

But $99 a month for a Dual Xeon / 2G / 36 SCSI box is obnoxiously cheap. Unless they are getting their equipment off Ebay or something, a 1U server with those specs is going to run at least $2K+. It would take almost 2 years just to pay the box off. Therefore zero income to the company. Something isn't right when hosts offer things that cheap.

                                                                                                                  One of the following is happening.

                                                                                                                  Used equipment

                                                                                                                  LayeredTech is fairly inexpensive, but not $99 for a dual Xeon. We would be willing to match them, without the setup fee.

                                                                                                                  Keep in mind, LayeredTech is not multi-homed, we are.

Just an FYI. I don't see any indication what so ever that LT is multi-homed. Would be happy to hear from them, and have them prove me wrong.

If I do the search on my dom names, they show up as SAVVIS and not LayeredTech, which if I bought my server from a reseller, I would want (or at least the reseller would want....)

If I do the search on my dom names, they show up as SAVVIS and not LayeredTech, which if I bought my server from a reseller, I would want (or at least the reseller would want....)
                                                                                                                                                                                  Well ALL of these "so called" hosts are resellers of LT. Not real private if you ask me.

Customer support and reliable bandwidth is top priority for me.

They offer a choice of three network providers tho, which is nice. Thanks tho for pointing that out - they are great offers, and I never clarified why I am erring on them!
