What's your dedicated server configuration?
Hello, everyone:
I never had any dedicated server before for a high traffic site. So I want to ask you experienced webmasters for some help. I am wondering what configuration would be good enough for, say, 200GB /month transfer? I would also like to know what kind of server you have (cpu speed, memory, hard drive, etc.) and what's your monthly bandwidth. And what OS are you using, FreeBSD, Linux, Windows? I am seriously considering a dedicated server. My site isn't reach 200GB transfer yet, but it's getting close. And my PHP programming needs more functionality and freedom on software installation. So any help will be very appreciated. Thank you everyone, Jinn |

Definitely Free BSD unless your running live streams.

I have redhat7 on mine, doing about 400 gigs per month. I have 512 ram but you can probably get away with less for 200 gigs.
But the main difference between my current server and the previous one is the quality of the apache installation. If your apache build is not up to par the whole thing will be very unstable. matty http://wildvoyeur.com/webmasters.htm [This message has been edited by heymatty (edited 11-21-2001).] |
if you are newbie
try raqs they can handle 200gb bandwith |
I have 4 dual 1 Ghz P3 systems, each with 1 Gb RAM, 36 Gb SCSI disk. One of them is doing 5000 Gb per month "easily". Of course they are all running on FreeBSD.

Most of these configurations are a little too high for 200GB http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/smile.gif
What I'd recommend is something of that sort: P3 800 512MB SDRAM 20GB HD We mainly use a customised version of Redhat Linux 7.1 which has been rock-stable and fast for months. Using such a configuration you can push quite a lot more than 200GB so you've room to grow which is very important. Hit me up on ICQ 17021242 if you have any questions, please.

Thank you for all your replies. I can see many of you have very high traffic sites. I think for mine, 1GHz, 512Ram, 20GB HD would be enough for a while. Hope to see more people join in this discussion. Thanks everyone and have splendid Thanksgiving!
