Cheap Dedi, moving from delimiter. US hosted

edited June 2016 in Requests

I'm looking for a cheap dedicated server, something similar to what I had at delimiter.

Delimiter Specs; Dual E5420, 16GB, 500GB HDD

I basically want something cheap I can geek out on. Nothing on a very long term. I'll be honest, I'll probably rent the server for 5 months and drop it. Give me the cheap stuff (as long as the hardware isn't failing and the network isn't garbage)

I want to install game servers, run an IRC server, or a VPN server. Host legal adult content if I want to. Slice it up into a virtualizor and run some VPSs.

Unmanaged is perfectly fine, but decently fast ticket response would be lovely. Not a deal breaker though.

I can throw about $40 USD monthly, but the cheaper the better obviously.

  • How about Dacentec?

  • Why moving?

    So you want it DDoS protected. Get something from OVH in Canada.

    Looks good actually. How is their network? I avoided Hetzner auctions for cheap dedis because I've heard their network is usually hot garbage.

    Let the server lapse and I don't want to go through the same setup as last time. Took them six days to get the hardware available for me.

    DDoS Protected is optional. All the servers I run are private use, 9 months and no attacks directed at me.>

  • the last time I ordered from Delimiter, it took them less than 24 hours to deliver the server. You might want to contact mike before ordering, that should help.

  • SYS? If that +10ms latency to US is okay for you. They do not have setup fee until the end of June.

    I'm still happy at $20/month:

    • Intel Dual Quad Harpertown L5420
    • 8192MB DDRII Memory
    • 500GB SATAII HDD
    • 1Gbps Port Speed
    • 20TB Premium Bandwidth
    • 5 IP Address

    All Dedicated Servers Include:
    -100.00% Network SLA
    -Free Reboots

    The 5 IP addresses come in hand when you'll use some kind of virtualisation.

    You can ask for an upgrade on the memory to suit your needs, if available they'll give it to you.

    @blightedbehemoth I can do the following for $40/month

    Intel Atom C2758 CPU
    16 GB Ram
    1 TB HDD
    10 TB Bandwidth
    1 Gbps Port
    5 IPs

    The atom is just as powerful as the E5420. PM me for more details

    Then can you explain how the Atom C2758 is faster than the Dual E5420?

    Yes this is really me, I have been working for ColoCrossing since I sold ChicagoVPS, just not in the VPS market, I am focused on Enterprise sales. Just happened to see a dedicated server request and decided to reply.

    So are you replacing Ernie as contact person on here?

  • I have both dacentec and kimsufi/soyoustart.

    Dacentec gives me over 50MB/s constant speed when seeding, uh, Linux ISOs. (Of course I didn't seed for long due to 10TB allowance.)

    They do have a different traffic meter, so usually vnstat report 9TB+ and they report 10TB+. Not a big deal if you occasionally overshoot a little bit.

    Kimsufi is pretty solid. Only reboot when I upgrade the kernel. You have to use some strategies to rescue your system if things go wrong -- no KVM/IP provided.

    Soyoustart, just started using it so not much comments. Networking is pretty much the same as kimsufi, just faster.
