    Like the titles says,

    We are looking for cheap dedicated servers with lots of bandwidth

    Right now we can get servers with 10mbit unmetered for $150. If you can beat that price please let us know.

    Thanks,

    Andy

    go for fdcservers as they will provide you 100mbit shared port but can easily burst upto 25-30 mbit.

    With those unmetered services, careful about the cpu specs. If CPU, memory, and harddrives speeds are slow, having an unlimited amount of bandwidth isn't that useful

    Well, I could get 5-9 Mbps at different times of the day, testing from different VPSs and my dedi box. Once it went over the rated 10Mbps (~1.5MBps) while I used their speed test. Expect >5Mbps anytime.

    VolumeDrive has good reputation at WHT and I might try out them soon too.
    They have a nice sempron64 3000+ for $50 now and I hear they'd introduce some dual core AMDs at $65 soon ;)

    CowGame: yes you are right :)

    agnivo007: That's great, 5-9Mbps is still very good for that price. :)

    I have now ordered a server at volumedrive and see for my self how good they are.

    Maybe your idea on 'unmetered' and 'unlimited' is BS :p

    Also, I think shared and dedicated 'unmetered' specifications are very different.

    I have experience using their dedicated boxes and can also vouch for them. For $150 you can get a decent box with unmetered shared 100 Mbit. I have pushed 6-7 TB/month from a box I have with them. And their support has always been very good.

    Be careful with those unlimited unmetered hostings. I think it is impossible. Because like youtube they are spending millions of dollars for server as very busy. They will just change to those unlimited hostings if it is really true.

    most unmetered providers offer umetered connection but mostly on slow servers, so you would never be able to push that many gb's...
