RAM and processor is a more important stat than the drive size. -
If the ram and processor was decent... What is the going rate for a dedicated server like this? I think its worth about $150 and anything more would be because of great customer service...Comment

We can get you setup with a similar server in NY as well if preferred and 200GB drive. Shoot me an email if you have any questions.

You're using alexa to see how fast your server is?Comment

He's laughing because you asked a question like "how much does a car cost" and when someone said "what kind of car" you said "a fast one."
Can't answer your question without the right details. Ask your host what's in your box.Donovan TrentComment

With the limited server info you provided I can tell you that a decent server with 10 megs and Awesome network and Support would run you about $130.00 to $150.00 per month. Now with specials and other factors that could go up or down a few bucks depending on the host. I would stick with a good host that has a Good long time reputation for quality and uptime and most important support. I have several servers and do much more BW than you mention but the prices I said are in the ball park with www.techiemedia.comLast edited by Net Money; 09-12-2009, 06:14 PM.Comment

I checked techie out... this page particularly... http://www.techiemedia.com/virtual.html
I do 4000 gigs monthly transfer which is way more then the highest listed add on that site for 99.95 / month. Also 4 gb of disk space... I'm interested in 200. Maybe I am mis-interpreting the abbreviations??Comment

Didn't you want a dedicated server? Why are you looking at the virtual packages?
Dedicated servers are here http://www.techiemedia.com/dedicated.html
You have to contact them with the amount of bandwidth you need to get a quote. They can also build custom servers according to your needs, you're not limited to the 3 servers on that page.Comment

mmcfadden those are some old virtual plans, that is not what you are looking for. As net money stated I could set you up with a very nice dedicated server with 10 megs and 2x400 gigs of drive space in a raid for around $140.00 ish fully managed. Anyway if you want to discuss the options just hit me up.
Thanks Jarmusch you are 100% correct.

you said box...
It doesn't matter... my question is so simple and I just can't get a straight answer. I pay $335 right now for 200 gigs of disk size... 4000 gigs per month bw transfer... and a pretty fast box (hehe)
Justin busts my balls and I do his... I'm sure that is justin by his 240208 number...
All I want is some answers from webmasters... hosting IMO should not be so difficult to get some answers.Comment

It's already been explained that it's difficult to provide a "straight answer" because you haven't provided all the details. The specs of your server must be recorded somewhere - in a welcome email, in your hosts billing/control panel, etc...
In general though $335 does sound on the high side, unless you've got something like dual Xeons with 8GB of RAM and the 200GB is mirrored with hardware RAID. Chances are that's not the case though...
How long have you had the server? That's another thing to consider. Many hosts will keep charging you the same amount every month even though the hardware has been depreciated and 100% written off and their other costs such as bandwidth have actually fallen. In this case it's not a bad idea to ask the host to renegotiate your plan, or provide an upgrade. Have you looked at their site lately?Comment

Further... I do not know exactly what 10 megs means. 10 megs to me means the size of a picture...Comment

Thank you! I can check all the specifics but I am sure it is about average. I've had it for a couple years now.It's already been explained that it's difficult to provide a "straight answer" because you haven't provided all the details.

Yes, I think it is on the high side but have heard alot of nightmare stories about some other hosts.Comment

Dude Techiemedia did answer your questions and in fact they offered you the hosting you said you had for like 1/2 what you said you pay. Also you can trust that Techie is not some newbie host on the block, they have been around for many many years with a fantastic reputation. You can't go wrong with them mate.
