    Hi,

    I am going to buy a server here. Just I want to know whats the security level on their server. Is there any discount option?

    Regards,
    ML.

    Just so you know:

    1. FDC's servers are unmanaged so do not expect to receive much support from them.
    2. FDC is known for a bad network (they have improved a lot) but it's not very good. Thats why they provide so much bandwidth for not a lot of money.

    First one is correct, they almost don't provide any support at all.

    2: My uptime at fdcservers(for file hosting website) is 99.9% and I would say that network is stable.

    Well since I have been a customer for a long time I know how it was like, but as I said now it looks like it has improved.

    I was also planing to buy a VPS from there. I searched for their support. I only found that they give support if you are willing to pay hourly fee.

    FDC is pretty inexpensive as it is, if you want a discount on their pricing you need to figure out what you are doing wrong as you cant afford much.

    If you are looking for inexpensive shared unmetered then FDC is a good place to start your search. This is their specialty. If you dont need cheap unmetered bandwidth you might check out some other options. there are a lot of hosts out there and in this economy, they are all willing to work on price to get your business.

    Alright, my main aim is to get Maximum Security server like dreamhost. But dreamhost is too much expensive. So, what other companies can give max security so that no one can hack into my sites.

    Be aware that it is in the US so anything illegal would be shut down pretty quickly. If you want offshore, try finding a reputable reseller or check out the dedicated offers on WHT

    Remember you get what you pay for.
    If you get an unmanaged server and you don't know how to manage it... thats not really a secure decision you'd have to hire a server management company to secure your server and keep it running.
