100 mb unmetered

    Hey guys. We are looking for a server for our video site. Our goal is to find a server host with 100mb/s unmetered bandwidth that we can grow into.

    I saw someone on here recommend FDCservers.net, but their pricing confused me a little bit (the "Add $500 Monthly for 100Mbit Average" part to be exact). I also looked into SoftLayer, but $2k/month is a bit much.

    for now we need a 10 mb/s unmetered minimum with 250gb HDD. We are looking at growing fast so a scalable host is a must.

    A tech friend of mine suggested that we look out for a host that sells unmetered on contracts (the put $800 down and get 100mb/s for $200/month stuff) any thoughts on that? or do you know of any that are doing something like that?

    Depends if you want shared or dedicated bandwidth... Will you have regional or all-over-the-world visitors?

    What type of hardware did you need and how much bandwidth did you really plan on using?

    Our videos will be converted to 4,000kbps quality. So we plan on using bandwidth as the site gets popular which is why the unmetered option is a must.

    on the hardware side we are looking at starting smaller in terms of CPU, but definitely want a host that has some scalability. We plan on getting fairly big and it could happen pretty fast.

    You still haven't said what your current hardware is. I can offer servers on Gbit ports where your allowed to use averages (50, 100, 200 mbps etc.) but aren't metered or limited in any way. And no over usage charges occur either. You can contact me via messenger for quick answers to your questions and explanation of anything you need to know including pricing.
