    Hey

    I am going to start a filehosting site soon and i need a good and fast server. The server has to have 100mbit unmetered bandwidth. Good amount of space and CPU doesnt matter much.

    I was thinking of getting: http://fdcservers.net/Services/DedicatedServers/100MbitUnmeteredservers

    But the price is high for me, so if you have something similar to that ^, then please post your offers.

    Thanks.

    You won't get anything similar to that for a lower price. It just won't match the quality.

    None of them have unmetered bandwith which is something he wants :)

    A file hosting site on shared hosting isnt a good idea, plus he knows he needs dedicated.

    Honestly mate go with FDC, they may lack a bit in support but you get what you pay for. You may find a cheaper company called dedimove but don't go with them they are useless, i ordered my server from them 21 days ago and they dont reply to emails. They might lure you in with the price but they are absolute garbage.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Yes, i need a dedicated server, and i am pretty sure this site cant run on a shared hosting.

    I would go with FDC, but i dont like their verification methods

    100mbps true unmetered is something that you will not find under $2000/month.
