Half their website doesn't work - try and get details on any of their dedicated plans: https://manage.quadranet.com/order/?form_id=106

Fatal Error
Invalid order form

I'm paying US$400 per month for a dedicated server and it has been up and down for over 3 days. This equates to a substantial loss of earnings, way more than their 10 day free SLA breaking terms.

It's not the first time I've had issues. Seriously pissed off.

strange you are having problems, pacificrack have been solid for me with the server I have with them, I just looked and have over 99.9% uptime with them in the last 6 months, and the server has been up 100% this month so far

TurboAngel

Make sure to look at NatNet.

CunningStunt

I've recommended them to people for years, until this year, no issues whatsoever.

I have to wait and see if my programmer has the time and inclination to shift 3 sites over next week, and go through all the dealings with accounts etc. FFS.

Some good deals above, I've bookmarked this thread.

that's expensive for that.

mgtarheels

Hell yeah it is.

CunningStunt

Thanks for cheering me up, I'm already fuming.

mgtarheels

One sec. I'm working something out for you now.

CunningStunt

I wouldn't host with a company that allows sites like stories.xnxx.com to post CP / Snuff / Bestiality / Rape and torture stories.

How do you allow it, illegal in the US aren't they? You might want to look into that.

mgtarheels

P.S. I don't own this company, and they don't have an affiliate program so I'm not getting shit out of this.

Just supporting a good host.

LeRoy

An affiliate showed me this the other day.

http://www.100tb.com/

Its getting cut throat out there.

Thanks guys, apparently both drives are failing on our server and need to be replaced.

How common an occurence is that?

icymelon

have servers at amerinoc, hosthead and xxxhostit that have had 0 down time

That's probably an excuse. Unless, perhaps, the real issue is heat. A fan died and nobody
was monitoring it so the drives started failing as they server overheated.

You might take note of that part about "nobody was monitoring it". You'll also notice a bunch of
hosts posting the cheapest deals. Most people buy hosting primarily on price, so the profit
margin is slim. Therefore, with 90% of hosts your "managed" server is totally ignored until
you request something. The alerts that the OS sends out when bad shit happens are sent
to nobody. This is the end result.

If you'd like something a little different, a set up where a qualified sysadmin looks after your
systems, give us a call or shoot me an email.

They have it back up now. Turns out one of the 2 drives we have in RAID failed last week, was replaced, and now the second original drive they had in there failed - so luckily one of the drives still worked, and a new drive in there has recovered the thing.

I've had perhaps 3 hard drives fail on me in 15 years, it doesn't seem right that 2 should fail within a week. Something else is probably up with it like overheating as raymor suggests.

3 days of downtime x 250,000 page impressions, that's a fuckload of pissed me off.

roly

i posted in tidalwaves thread three weeks ago that the order form was messed up, and he didn't respond and its still not fixed. they must have lost a lot of orders in the mean time. weird.

CunningStunt

Maybe they have run out of hardware and don't want any more business right now, and the reason they are obviously building dedicated servers with shitty old drives that are on the way out.

I wonder how that merger is working out for them. Not well from the looks of things.

Oh, and "Shatil", you should be sacked, wanker.

Nasty

They are working on new forms, I picked up another server from them yesterday by calling George at sales, it was painless
