Is this good pricing for a dedicated?
 

Intel Celeron 2.4Ghz
10Mb Burstable Port
Setup: $0.00
512 DDR RAM
120GB HDD
2U Chassis
IPv4 Ips Included: 5
IPv6 Ips Included: /64


128Kbit/s 95th or 40GB Monthly: $80.00

If its not good, what could you get that same exact deal for?

And what does 10mb burstable port mean??

Thats not the BEST dedicated system...but the deal is not bad at all IMHO

Yeah, its alright.. 10Mbps burstable port means the max it can burst to is 10Mbps of bandwidth.

Since youre only getting 40GB of transfer though, thats more than enough.

What are you hosting?

managed or not ?

The price is not bad.

No its not managed, its just a host I ran accross that promised "The lowest possible prices" for dedicated servers.


I was just wondering if it was good though.

Hosting a blog and maybe a bulletin board, nothing big.


Would any of you guys buy that or is it too much?

For your needs I dont see why you would go with dedicated, especially if its unmanaged, just means more headaches for you down the line. Why not check out some virtual hosting plans, we got a couple at www.realitychecknetwork.com/virtual.html where you would have ample space and more transfer for the cash and not have to worry about management and have a full control panel.

Because I know FreeBSD and the server is free bsd.

As far as virtual hosting, I can get that for free from multiple places.


You sell 100 megs :1orglaugh of storage and 20 gigs of bandwidth for $10.00

The host Im on now and have been for over 3 years I get 1 gig of storage and 50 gigs of bandwidth for $7.50 and its ipowerweb.com

Laugh all you want, theyre cheap, my site always loads, its fast.

Make that 2 gigs of storage as they just upgraded last month.

Still $7.95

i think the price is ok ...

I could get you a P3 dedicated server , with 10mbps monthly (3,200GB) burstable up to 50mbps for $180/mo.

It's more like a do it yourself server which is not bad. Burstable in plain english is, get more from what you came for.

I can get you the following :)

Celeron 1.8ghz
512 Ram
1 x 80gig disk
CentOS w/Cpanel
10mbit port
500 gig transfer

$80/month

:)

it's pretty expensive actually...

where to get cheaper ?

i'm hoping you don't do a lot of traffic, i was managing this lady that had an ovh.net (french) cel 2.4 128M ram 40GB drive machine for 69 Eu/mo and let me tell you, i've never had more problems with *any* machine... she'd get googlebotted and the box would go down. Go with shared hosting, or at least pay for an AMD processor, celerons seriously blow.

check out my sig maybe they can help you.

the celerons actually outperformt the lower end duron boxes that you will find in the same price range, the box crapped because it was ohv.net which is awful french bandwidth.

Even a low grade pIII can handle a googlebot session if it was crapping on a simple spider run that box was configured like ass.

actually, the bandwidth wasn't the problem, the slow ass disk, shitty processor, and 128M of ram, while running a dynamic site with over 2,000 entries (weblog) was the problem. the only way to stay dynamic while keeping that machine's load under 40+ was to use shitty hacks like the staticize reloaded wordpress plugin.
