Hello i want to go for a dedicated server but now iam confused on choosing one.. Here are the three servers.. can u tell me which one is the best... 1. This does not come with cpanel/whm they charge $34.95 Monthly * Dual Xeon 3.06HT Ghz * 2048MB RAM * 120GB SATA RAID / Free Backup * 2000GB Bandwidth $299.95 / month 2. Free cpanel/whm * Dual Xeon 2.4 * 4096mb ram * 2x73gb SCSI * 2,500gb Bandwidth $279.00 / month 3. Free cpanel/whm * Dual-Core 3060 Conroe * 4096mb ram * 4x500gb SATA II RAID10 * 2,500gb $374.00 / month Which one you think is the best with effect to cost and performance... Please help..
Option 2 and 3 looks good especially with the 4gb RAM. Option 2 CPU is marginally slower than Option 1 but the additional 2gb RAM would indeed be of great help. The SCSI is great if your sites makes a lot of disk access, great for streaming media. Option 3 SATA II on the other hand gives you way more harddisk space and the RAID 10 seems like a neat option for data redundancy. SATA II is not too shabby and is a great option I would choose between Option 2 and 3 but it all depends on what your needs are.
Well, actually there is not a BEST server. They are different servers for different needs. However, if you are planning to grow and you have the money, I would go for option 3. Those are 4 500GB disks in RAID10 which means a stripe of mirrors, it will give you not only redundancy but a performance boost for your sites and/or databases. Also a decent amout of RAM and a good processor, I would go for that one
Which host ia offering this? 3. Free cpanel/whm * Dual-Core 3060 Conroe * 4096mb ram * 4x500gb SATA II RAID10 * 2,500gb $374.00 / month
Free cpanel/whm * Dual-Core 3060 Conroe * 4096mb ram * 4x500gb SATA II RAID10 * 2,500gb $374.00 / month This one is the best
Yes iam having 3 websites in which 2 sites are really resource consuming.. so i'll probably for for the 3rd option....
#2 is the best bang for the buck, while #3 is the best. I'm curious, who are you getting these offers from? I have my servers through Jewlzk.com and haven't found anyone else to match them in terms of specs/price.
It wotn be of any use unless you've EXTREMELY resource consuming sites. 4 Cores would be more than enopugh. If you want to host personal sites(not proxies), then option 2 is great. WHile if you have high bandwidth proxy sites as well, option 3 is great!
Uptime has been perfect and I have personally gotten a great deal on bandwidth that I'm not sure others would get, but in general it's around $20-25 per 1Mbit unmetered, if you want to go that route. Otherwise Roland (the owner) will figure out something custom for you at a price that will work. Since my site is a downloads site, I require lots of bandwidth and fast transfers, so for my main server it costs me around $670 a month for an extremely powerful server and a 40Mbps unmetered dedicated connection. I've been to A LOT of hosts, and that's pretty darn good.
I'll be hosting 2 social networking websites which consumes lots of resources an now iam in vps and if more than 20 members come online at a time my site is becoming terribly slow..... This situation is with one site and iam planning to start a similar site.. so i think i'll go for the 3rd one....
